Album Description

Few artists have as rich and varied a history with ECM as Dino Saluzzi. The Argentine bandoneon master has recorded 10 albums, and each one tells it's own endlessly inventive musical story. The spirit of Dino Saluzzi's work is derived from the oral tradition of Argentina's music and its value on melody and simplicity.

A 1996 collaboration with the Munich-based Rosamunde Quartett became the starting point for Saluzzi's work with cellist Anja Lechner. Lechner has had her own success on ECM, most notably with her album, the hit Chants, Hymns and Dances. For the past six years, Saluzzi and Lechner have performed in concert all over Europe.

Ojos Negros is the first recording from this magical duo, and creates a richly lyrical dialogue that blurs the lines between folk music, jazz and tango. This is chamber music with Argentine traditions, presented through Saluzzi compositions and the beautiful old tango tune "Ojos negros" ("Black Eyes").

an intense listen. Great communication and interaction . Music as a form of human language has rarely been demonstrated so exquisitely . High Art . While still being an easy but attentive listening

Soporific Yet Satisfying.......2007-06-08

The liner notes in the handsome booklet that accompanies Ojos Negros start with a very telling anecdote involving Argentine writer Jorge Luis Borges, and it is obvious that the author of the notes intended the putative Borges quote to apply to the music of Dino Saluzzi as well. That is, if you don't understand the work, then its not for you.
That has been the problem for me since I was introduced to the music of Saluzzi through his work with Al DiMeola's world music project. He was so good there, I sought out his own projects. But as hard as I tried, I just didn't connect with any of them until now.
If you are looking for the music of Dino Saluzzi, then its likely that you already know what the bandoneon is all about. There surely is not another instrument with the power to express melancholy, longing and angst as the bandoneon and that is what makes perfect for tango. But in the last half-century, adventurous musicians, Saluzzi among them, have explored the possibilities of the bandoneon beyond the world of tango.
The foundation of Ojos Negros lies in tango. The title of the CD itself is also the name of a tango dating from the time of the Guardia Vieja of the early 20th century, and it is indeed the only composition covered here that is not Saluzzi's. If you know the piece, you will surely recognize it. But while Saluzzi's music is anchored in tango, his collaboration here with German cellist Anja Lechner extends his musical reach deep into the worlds of chamber music and avant-garde jazz and the result is often spellbinding.
I have listened to Ojos Negros at least a dozen times since I bought it. And though I did not like it instantly, its musical secrets gradually revealed themselves to me after repeated listens. This is a work that surely demands that you be all ears lest the key to its mysteries escape you. It is somber, it is stately, and it is often soporific, yet it is ultimately satisfying.
A couple of other Saluzzi CDs I own haven't really "worked" for me. Ojos Negros does. If you have the patience and the time to listen without distractions, you may find that it works for you as well.

Elegant and free-flowing........2007-05-30

Argentine Dino Saluzzi, a master of an accordion-like instrument called the bandoneon, plays moody, meandering music derived from the tango.
He is a virtuoso and a symbol of the music which he plays.
A Master of his instrument, and of his idiom, a defiantly acoustic, 21st-century development of the angst-ridden New Tango.
He has collaborated with jazz masters such as John Surman, and with classical ensembles such as the Rosamunde Quartett. He was a star of last year's Norwegan Nattjazz festival where he was featured in a concerto-like setting with the Bergen Big Band.
"Ojos Negros" features eight duets performed with German cellist Anja Lechner (of the Rosamunde Quartett), all but one composed by Saluzzi. Yet mastery does not guarantee a world-beating album.
The duo's interpretations are elegant and free-flowing, but there's a lack of compositional bite that is not always compensated for by sheer performance.
There are times, listening to these intense and beautifully recorded duets, when the predominant impression is that of eavesdropping on a well-mannered private conversation.
Which is why many people will adore "Ojos Negros".

Intriguing combination.......2007-05-27

This is a fabulous album, combining a couple of excellent musicians performing an interesting tango music with an unusual colour of sound, Piazolla must be thrilled!

pure grace and beauty in sound..........2007-04-15

I've had this recording for 2-3 weeks now, and I can't seem to get enough of it. On first listening, from the first few notes breathed from Dino Saluzzi's bandoneón, I knew I was in for something magical. Even though Dino's `sound' is recognizable immediately, no one should mistake that statement as characterizing him as standing still musically - his art is continuously evolving and growing. Since the issue of his first album for ECM, KULTRUM (1982), I've been following the creativity of his music, and I've never been disappointed. He has worked as a solo artist, in duos, trios and larger groupings - his 1999 recording with the Rosamunde Quartett (again entitled KULTRUM) showed that the bandoneón fit perfectly into a setting that could almost be classified as chamber music.

That recording also marked his first work with Anja Lechner, cellist for Rosamunde - she had for some time loved the music of the tango, and working more closely with Dino allowed her to hear that genre performed in a manner much more authentic than the European derivatives to which she had mainly been exposed. Saluzzi's music, she relates, `...was more profound that just tango. He was playing a music that was really his own...I entered a new world.' She is without a doubt one of the finest cellists working today in any genre - her skill and sensitivity, and her ability to convey emotion and feeling in her playing without overriding her partner make her a perfect match to Dino's work.

The phrase `more profound than just tango' describes the art of Dino Saluzzi perfectly. In his hands, the bandoneón breathes with a life of its own - it becomes a part of him, an alternate voice, a storyteller, a filter through which passes everything he has seen, felt, tasted, experienced over the course of his life. When I listen to Dino play, I can close my eyes and see a mountain path shrouded in the mist of early morning. I can rub the dirt of a country road at twilight under my bare feet, fell wind with a hint of coming rain blowing in early evening, take in the scent of a meal cooking over a fire, hear the laughter of children playing, relax in the embrace of a lover, see the wisdom in the dark eyes of a forest Indian. Dino's music is his history - there are pieces inspired by events, family members, acquaintances, places and times - and the skill, love and care with which he evokes all of these things is nothing short of palpable in his playing.

There are a couple of pieces here that Dino has recorded before - `Tango a mi padre', the album's opening track, is a loving portrait of his father, and first appeared on MOJOTORO in 1991. `Minguito' was recorded on VOLVER, a project he did with the great Italian trumpeter Enrico Rava, in 1986. All of the pieces, save `Ojos negros' - composed by bandoneónist Vicente Greco (1888-1924) - are Saluzzi originals. `Esquina' is a particularly beautiful example of how Dino's memories wind their way through his music. He remembers the time, in his village of Salta, more than 60 years ago: `I still have this very clear picture of my father, sitting on a rock somewhere in our little village. I see him from the back, in his short-sleeved white t-shirt, in the moonlight, playing the bandoneón - and he's playing a song I loved when I was just seven years old, a sad song about leaving a beautiful small town to go to the big city of Paris...'

The bandoneón and the cello complement each other exquisitely throughout the recording - alternately leading or supporting, weaving in and out of each other with the grace of skillful dancers, moving so naturally that the listener might be compelled to suspect mind-reading talents are involved. Grace is indeed involved, but the music is also evolving constantly - Anja Lechner says, `In Dino's music, you never play any phrase the same way twice.' Dino adds, `We are basically playing a music build of rubato phrases - but the conception of the rubato is different at every concert. The pieces change all the time, but the way the improvising is integrated is different from the jazz approach...the composition is an idea that suggests some possibilities...we take a lot of freedom with the forms.' The freedom here is based on structure as a foundation - but the skill of the players never allows the music to descend into anarchy. There is grace and beauty in every note, every phrase - it's a wonderful thing to experience.

Now and then one can hear the rhythm and form of the tango assert itself - it rises up for a moment, as if to remind us of where this music was born, of its lineage, then dances off into the mists of sound created by the players, leaving an audio shadow, a presence that never quite disappears. That being said, one should definitely not go into Dino Saluzzi's music expecting it to be limited to `tango' - that would be a big mistake. When asked if his music should be called `tango', Dino wisely says `Time spent trying to define the music is time taken away from playing it. I always simply say, "I play music, sir", and I hope that is enough...does the music touch you or not? This is what matters.'

I've always felt that the mark of a master musician is the impression left with the listener that the instrument is an extension of the performer's voice, of his or her very soul - a window to their inner being, through which everything that makes them the person they are can be `seen' in the form of sound. This recording delivers on that rare level - and it soars even higher on repeated listenings. It's a treasure in the fullest sense of the word.

The best of latin music through Domingo's voice.......1999-08-10

This CD goes wherever I go, it is with no doubt, the queen of my collection. Medleys are wonderfully orchestrated and arranged and every song makes you travel anywhere between Mexico and Buenos Aires. Here, Domingo's voice is more like a musical instrument than anything else and each song you'll discover a new instrument. Honestly, I would personally award it six stars.

Classic Latin American tunes beautifully sung and produced,.......1998-12-11

Domingo's love for traditional Latin American music shines throughout this CD. A selection of great "standards", beautifully arranged and recorded by one of the world's great voices. "De Mexico a Buenos Aires," written by Domingo's son is the one original song on the recording and is one of many highlights here. I have listenned to this CD countless times over the past two years and it remains a delight.

Tango at its best.......2001-01-26

Sexteto Mayor has moved the old tango to today's music values, without loosing the essence of the tango, the 2x4 rythm. It combines then two things, highly professionally executed music with the virtues of the Argentine tango. A perfect combination. Even if you are not a tango fan, you should not miss this one. This CDs reflects a performance that has today over 500 presentations around the globe, from China to Albulquerque, from Turkey to San Diego, and has performed in the best theatres and music center around the world. Do not miss it.

Mixed emotions.......2000-07-20

I admit it, when it comes to tango, I tend to be a purist. Therefore, I still have a hard time accepting many of the latest "fusion" trends such as certain songs found in this CD which are not real tangos [e.g. "Ojos negros" a traditional Russian song, played in a tango tune] as well as the "bilingual" versions of some traditional tangos (sung with a pathetic accent, reminiscent of the early days of Julio Iglesias, I might add!)] The orchestra however, sounds wonderful, exceptionally balanced and very assertive.

Impressive collection. A MUST have........1999-10-31

Sexteto Mayor has been known for years in Argentina as being some of the best in tango interpreting and playing. This production meets all expections. This is Argentinian Tango at its best. Great examples were chosen for this CD, I buy it often to give to friends that want to know about my Argentinian origins.

Fabulous!.......1999-06-04

Sexteto Mayor is a MUST HAVE in every tango lover's collection. This is authentic Argentinian tango at its best!

Fleta: A truly magnificent tenor- cheap.......2005-07-28

A very good quality compilation at a very good price- part of the nibus prima voce series of which I have many items.

Miguel Fleta was a tenor of magnificent ability: virile as a Corelli but with a more beautiful tone in addition to a nearly effortless top. The voice is nearly identical from top to bottom. Listne to the first aria from La Favorita- he walks up to a high C# effortlessly and with a totally full sound that seems not to modify at any point along the way. Also his morendo is almost unbelievable- pulling off of high c's like young di Stefano but without the vocal flaws. Apparently, Fleta has a few critics, but I cannot imagine why.

How can you possibly go wrong with a tenor this good at a price like this?

Great stuff. High energy latin blend of genres........2006-06-10

I picked up this CD while traveling in Spain and I was pleasantly surprised. They exude such passion and high energy. Even their ballads are energized. I have not been able to really find other latin music that compares. While Azucar Moreno had some bigger albums like Bandido, I like this one and absolutely love Amor.

Their BEST.......2002-04-27

I _completely_ disagree with the previous reviewer -- were you drunk? This album achieved that rare coherence in pop music, its songs weaving together the brassy diva power and soulful Latin melancholy into one self-complete world. From the first song "Moliendo Cafe" to the beginning of the last one "Veneno", the album zooms down the highway like a soundtrack to a non-existent Almodovar movie - somewhere between "Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown" and "Tie Me Up, Tie Me Down". Or an alternative soundtrack to "Tu Mama Tambien". It feels like a cape that you want to wrap around you on a breezy spring day. Such is its evocativeness.

I am lucky to be introduced to AM thru this album. Their other ones I went on to try (Mambo and Bandido in particular) were disappointing - cliche dance pop music. "No dicen na'." If I started with them I would have never known what I am missing.

Almost all the songs started strong, although a few settled into cliches. I thought "Amor Latino", "Vente Conmigo", and "Veneno" are the least interesting (although the latter two had great instrument sections). "Mirame" is a great dance anthem, and "Ojos Negro" is very interesting musically (it's a traditional Chilean song?)

Gloria Gaynor meets La Lupe in the Garden of Almodovar. In a word - BUY!

It could have been better ..........2000-05-28

Azúcar Moreno hit it big with their 1991 masterpiece "Mambo", and expectations were high for the follow-up album "Ojos negros" from 1992 but they are not really fulfilled. Despite several good intentions to do something different, Nick Patrick's production makes the album a mitch-match, and I recall being quite disappointed when I heard it for the first time. The first song, a salsa tune "Moliendo café" is nice, but "Hechizo de luna" has a weak melody line which the otherwise great dance treatment doesn't succeed in disguising. "En tu calle sin salida" is good, opening with a dramatic string arrangement which leads onto a slow Latin cha cha. "Hazme el amor" & "Vente conmigo" are mid-tempo songs and disappointingly average. The fiery "Amor latino" is better, followed by the very best track on the album "Azucarero", a great dance track, classic Azúcar! The title track is a Chilean traditional, in no way remarkable, in fact it's a bit out of place on the album. The sisters duet with Luis Enrique on "Mírame" is nice, the last song "Veneno" has a strong dance beat but it doesn't really work. "Ojos negros" is not the sisters' best album, thankfully they returned in 1994 in top form with "El amor", and there haven't been any weak efforts since then.

This is one of the best Andean music records I have ever heard, perhaps made even more authentic by the fact that it was put out and released by a non-American, non-European label. While there are no liner notes and the performers aren't even credited, the music serves it's purpose. Beautiful.
