La Llave De Mi Corazon finds tropical music troubadour Juan Luis Guerra returning to the secular sounds that have made him an enduring, endearing performer. His last disc, 2004's Para Ti, was a cautiously received--if still joyous--collection of spiritual tunes. La Llave De Mi Corazon centers on romance and love, themes that better suit Guerra's blend of salsa, merengue and other assorted tropical rhythms. The cutesy title track is featured in English and in Spanish, though it's doubtful Guerra will engage in any serious crossover work anytime soon. Better is "Something Good," a silky, simmering duet with smoky-voiced Chiara Civello. Guerra's own rich, expressive delivery is always a treat. He's emotive without oversinging, particularly during the lilting "A La Vera" and "Solo Tengo Ojos Para Ti." Standout "Si Tu No Bailas Conmigo" is a simple, gorgeous ode to amor that soars on glittering imagery and a gently shuffling beat. "If you don't dance with me, I prefer not to dance," Guerra confesses to a lover. It's an irresistible invitation. --Joey Guerra

La llave de mi corazon.......2007-07-29

Excelent to be listened or to use for dancing. Variety of rhythms make it exciting.

Good songs, including cross over songs.......2007-07-23

Most songs are good. Not sure I like his effort on most of the ballads included. I prefer his fast rhytm fun songs in the CD.

El mejor album latino del 2007.......2007-07-18

Quien no recuerda "Bachata Rosa", "Si Tu Te Vas" o "Mi PC"? Juan Luis Guerra forma parte integral del haber crecido en Hispanoamerica en los años ochenta y noventa. Desde el cambio de siglo, no se sentia con la misma fuerza (o al menos no lo sentia YO con la misma fuerza), pero "La Llave De Mi Corazon" cambio todo de nuevo.

Aunque el sonido del album recuerda a la mejor epoca del gigante genio de la musica Dominicana, el album refresca el ambiente, recordandole al mundo el nivel de genialidad de Juan Luis Guerra que logra a un mismo tiempo alborotarle a uno las ganas de bailar y de decirle "Te Amo" a la pareja. No hay cancion debil en el album, lo cual equivale a decir que no hay descanso para los fanaticos de Juan Luis a lo largo y ancho de los 13 tracks.

Simplemente, sin lugar a duda, "La Llave De Mi Corazon" es el mejor album latino del año 2007.

Excellent Come Back on Juan Luis Guerra...finally!!!.......2007-07-15

I just love it, the english songs and new jazz rithems are a great complement to the other merengue, salsa and bachata songs.

Well rounded album full of poetry and dancing!

AHORA SI !!!!!!!!.......2007-06-22

Este si es el Juan Luis que aprendi a admirar desde hace mas de 20 años..Aqui vuelve a componer y cantar para todo su publico, con ese talento sin medida que tiene para orgullo de todos los latinos.
Despues de un pequeño desvio en el camino ( desde mi optica), en el cual quizo dar testimonio de su fe particular, olvidando que su publico es heterogeneo y que no necesariamente valora sus creencias intimas (aun cuando las respete) de la forma en que valora su musica que si tiene un valor universal...,Juan Luis vuelve a ser lo que es...nuestro mas grande artista!!!
Excelente CD..!!!!

Outstanding. BUY THIS ALBUM.......2007-05-13

I first learned of Zoe a couple of years ago when I happened to see of one their videos on Spanish MTV and was immediately blown away. Their music really doesn't feel "Latin" at all and is more reminiscent of bands like Radiohead, Nirvana, Pulp, and Interpol than well known Latin bands like Mana. In fact, I would say their music generally blows the aformentioned anglo bands out of the water.

This album is no exception and is probably Zoe's finest to date. It's not as poppy or Beatlesesque as some of their previous works (ie, like "Love"). Instead, it has a feel that is darker, more nuanced, and layered (more like their song "Miel," for those of you who've heard it). There are some outstanding songs on this album, Memo Rex, No Me Destruyas, Paz, and Via Lactea being some of my favorites. And in addition to having great songs, the album hangs together well - each song stands on its own while fitting in well with the album as a whole.

I have no idea how well known Zoe is in Latin America, but it's a shame they are not better known in the U.S. The fact that they're not so well known is probably just an indicator of how closed and U.S.-centric music tastes tend to be in the U.S.

At any rate, this album is fantastic and is highly recommended. To those looking for their more poppy side, I'd recommend their earlier albums though.

El mejor album de Zoe hasta la fecha.......2007-03-01

Despues de cuatro anos de escuchar a Zoe, este es definitivamente el mejor disco de la banda. De nuevo Leon nos presenta una estelar voz y el resto de la banda el arte de sus estrumentos.

Este album se ha convertido en uno de mis favoritos, y lo seleccione como el mejor album del ano 2006. Se lo recomiendo a cualquier persona amante de la musica rock en espanol. En realidad, este album ya es un clasico entre este genero.

Zoe lo volvio a hacer!

NUMERO UNO.......2007-02-11

yeah, Zoe make you wish your corazon was atomico. very anglo in style (it's often more interesting when artists from Latin America can insert some of their own musical tradtions into their musical style) but there is beautiful imagery in the lyrics and the songs get stuck in your head. i recommend it to anyone who might enjoy rock en espanol or brit pop, with a Mexican twist. i've had it on constant repeat for months.

A must have for 2007.......2007-01-18

This CD is a must have for 2007.
Each song is a trip in space, in the heart and emotions.
Via Lactea, No Me Destruyas and Nunca are soon to be part of classic Spanish Rock.
Is a great produced album with greater sound of music.
Do your self a favor and pick a copy of this album:)

Very nice and soothing.......2007-02-01

We play this CD when we're feeling mellow, or when we're trying to put our 2-year-old daughter to bed. I could swear the third track is part of the soundtrack to "The Third Man."

Barrios Defined.......2006-07-07

I should have written this years ago when I first got this recording. I host a half-hour program of music for guitar called Silver Moonbeams on WHRO FM 90.3 in Norfolk VA. I have all the Barrios recordings, and this is simply the best. Antigoni Goni knows and loves this music. Her timing and phrasing are superb. Her touch on the instrument is light and just right. In short, in my opinion, this is the very finest Barrios recording available. Many guitarists are competent, a few are brilliant and just a handful play music for the Gods. Antigoni Goni is definitely in the latter category.

Good Introduction to Barrios.......2005-03-30

I got this and David Russell's Barrios CD about the same time. The Penguin Guide to CDs gives this CD a three star - outstanding - rating; they also rate John Williams' Barrios recordings highly, but don't mention the David Russell Barrios recording.

This is Volume 1 of a projected series of Barrios' guitar music. It is my first time hearing Antigoni Goni who is excellent, leading me to want to hear her other recordings as well as live in recital.

There isn't too much overlap between her and Russell in Barrios, making getting both CDs worth it if you like Barrios.

Excellent recording quality.

Highly recommended.......2003-07-25

Playing Barrios requires more than just excellent technique. The performer has to capture the darkness in the light passages, like a yearning in moments of gaiety..Also, capture the light in the dark passages, as a ray of optimissim in moments of sorrow. Ms Goni captures all these emotions profoundly in this highly recommended CD.

The programme features rarely heard gems like Humouresque, Pepita, and the magical Tu y Yo. Her expressive phrasing often breathes new life into the often played works such as Maxixe, Junto a Tu Corazon, Vals no4.

Romantic guitar music, with Latin American folkloric influence

Absoultely the Best Barrios.......2002-03-27

This is one of my favorite CDs. You've never heard Barrios like this!

This collection includes Ernesto Lecuona's complete 1954 recordings plus a series of 78s made in 1927-28. Ten of the recordings were previously unreleased. This is a lot of lightweight Cuban piano music to deal with at once, but it's definitely worth doing. Lecuona's music, which is having a major revival, may not be important. But it's consistently charming and entertaining. The 78s, which sound surprisingly good, reveal even more of a virtuoso than do the later recordings, but throughout we hear playing that expresses the spirit of the music extremely well. And yes, the famous Malagueña is here, sounding very sexy. --Leslie Gerber

Customer Reviews:

Lecuona Plays Lecuona.......2007-05-12

Oh Boy! What can I tell you about this magnificent collection of musical jewels from our Maestro Lecuona. I bought the original Long Playing Record back in the 50's in my country.
I purchased it again shortly after my arrival to the US, and I was lucky enough to buy it on DVD from Amazon, once I found out they had it.

Lecuona the Cuban pianist is Great!.......2005-08-17

In my opinion this is one of the best CD's from Lacuona, Most of his piano compositions are recorded here (original ones), What, Ms. Leslie Gerber forgot to mention is that Mr.Lecuona was a band leader,"Lecuona and the Cuban Boys", remembers him? Or maybe she does not have sufficient information about him. The music from Lecuona still is very well alive today. I came across his recordings on my own, no one ever told me about this great pianist. I happened to hear the Malague?a by another great Cuban composer and band leader Perez Prado (The Real Mambo King) in one of his albums and Lecuona was the author. That got me interested in him. I'm pretty sure that Ms.Leslie Gerber does not mean any harm trying to put this composer down. It's just that maybe all she knows is Gerber baby food stuff!

The Cuban Chopin.......2004-06-18

What a great album and great value. There is music here that will make you smile, break your heart, inspire you, and Lecuona's skill is breathtaking. If you enjoy classical piano music (with a Cuban/Spanish influence), you'll love this. No, it doesn't display the virtuosity, complexity or seriousness of Lizst, Chopin or Beethoven, but it's fun, beautiful, dramatic yet accessible. You'll love it.

Lecuona, the musical genious . . . . ........2002-10-16

I feel compelled to identify myself first. I am Cuban born who arrived in the US in 1960 at the age of 16 years old. I am a US citizen since 1965 and a US Army Veteran of Viet Nam. I will die defending the right Ms. Leslie Garber has of expresing her opinions. But what I will not condone is her ignorance. To say that Lecuona writes "lightweight Cuban piano music" and that "Lecuona's music may not be important" is to show ignorance. A musician that composes GREAT music in several genres of the music world, a musician that in all genres has highly succesful pieces, and, a musician that after many years, (70-80 years) is still heard and admired can not be called other than MUSICAL GENIOUS and a CLASSICAL MUSICIAN. His music is so beautiful that it will live forever. From his Afro-Cuban compositions, to his romantic popular boleros, to his valses, to his Zarzuelas, Lecuona demonstrates once and again, time after time his immense musical talent. His Afro-Cuban "Cafetal", his romantic boleros "Noche Azul" and "Amapola", His vibrant and colorful "Comparsa" and "Andalucia", his classical Valses, just to mention a few things, makes Lecuona to stand together with the great musicians of the world. The fact that Hollywood made a film around "Estas en mi corazon" and that great singers, like Placido Domingo, want to sing Lecuona's music speaks immensely well of Lecuona/s greatness. The fact the popular instrumental orchestras like Faith, Conniff, Mantovani, Cugat have arranged and interpreted a lot of Lecuona's music also says a lot about Lecuona's versatility in his work. Lecuona is probably important to many millions of people and his music is certainly not lightweight. And if the only thing Ms. Garber can say about "Malaguena" is that "it sounds very sexy" is to demonstrate that she does not know a thing about music. It definitely does not give her the priviledge of commenting about Lecuona's music.

LECUONA IS NO LIGHTWEIGHT.......2002-02-27

Lecuona is one of the most important composers of Latin-America. He is by no means the "unimportant" and "lightweight" Leslie Gerber (whomever that may be) claims, having been hailed for performances of his earlier (and "less mature") works by the likes of Maurice Ravel.

In my opinion the highlight of the set is the devilish "La 32". It's also interesting to compare his interpretations of the same works at different times in his career, like the two recordings of "Por que te vas?" and "Amorosa", especially keeping in mind that Lecuona seldom notated and improvised quite frequently, leaving the transcription work to his students.

Best music I have ever heard.......2006-11-11

As a recent convert to Mexican music, I can say without doubt Alejandro's music is the best I have ever heard. He is a highly skilled and talented singer with a beautiful masculine voice. This is an album I have played over and over again and enjoyed thoroughly.

Godfrey

Muy Bueno..........2006-04-05

Since a Mexican friend of mine introduced me to Alejandro's songs, I have been hooked! If you are looking for something alegre or romantico - you can never ever go wrong with Alex. He so rocks! He just sets the perfect tone. I can't help but sing along with him. ;)

the ladies man.......2000-10-19

the son of mexican icon vicente fernandez sure followed in his fathers footsteps as a mexican singer. he sings mostly ballads,rancheras andlove songs. he has a really nice voice and with the mariachi band in the background, you get a pretty good idea of what mexican music is. even if you dont speak spanish, one listen and youll realize how beautiful his music is.

Alejandro's the best !.......2000-08-16

I know many would agree that this is the most beautiful voice on the planet, and here's another CD to prove it. Recorded in '96, with rousing rancheras like "Es La Mujer" and "Ya Se Que Dices", this is the most traditional of his recordings. The highlight for me is the Julio Iglesias/Rafael Ferro Garcia "Abrazame"...it's sublime. This is more than great singing, it's pure artistry. As with his other CDs, this entire package is wonderfully designed, with easy to read lyrics and information, and of course, gorgeous photos !

Just perfect!.......2000-08-07

If you like boleros, balads, and rancheras, this CD will give you all you want with your favorite music. He is such a great singer, he has that very masculine voice, and he has that incredible feeling while singing, that every song he sings, is wonderful. I love this CD!

The most noble voice.......2004-05-28

Victoria de los Angeles' voice not only has a silken quality and fascinating glow to it but it is one of the most regal, noble sounds you'll ever hear. She illuminated those moments of quietness, gentleness and noble, feminine pride and elegance like no other soprano before and after her. This release of her "Spanish Songs" has never been surpassed. The songs of her homeland seem to have been written for her beautiful instrument alone, she fills every piece with special beauty and charm, religious flair and beautiful, noble simplicity. Buy this recording and see why Victoria is one of the best sopranos ever having come from Spain.

PURCHASE THIS JEWEL WHILE YOU CAN.......2002-01-08

FOR A LONG TIME "SONGS OF SPAIN" HAS BEEN MY FAVORITE ALBUM OF CLASSICAL, POPULAR, SECULAR AND RELIGIOUS (CHRISTIAN AND SEPHARDIC) SPANISH SONGS. DE LOS ANGELES DEFIES A RIVAL IN THIS GENRE. DE LARROCHA, SORIANO AND ZANETTI PROVIDE UNEQUALED ACCOMPANIEMENTS. THE RECORDINGS ARE SECOND ONLY TO LIFE PERFORMANCES. I UNDERSTAND THAT EMI INTENDS TO TAKE THIS SET OUT OF PUBLICATION. PURCHASE THIS JEWEL WHILE YOU CAN! I JUST PURCHASED MY THIRD SET FROM AMAZON AND I TREASURE IT AS MUCH AS MY FIRST!

luminous artistry from a genius.......2000-12-26

the vocal artist of vocal artistsdisplays her absolutely gorgeous voice and musical understanding of spanish feeling with a warmth that is unmatched anywhere.the only thing better was to hear her in person!

A special Dignity and an Unfailing Beauty of Voice........2000-09-17

This set offers four generously-filled CDs comprising almost 140 Spanish songs from Victoria de los Angeles' repertoire. To all of them she brings a special dignity and an unfailing beauty of voice. The earliest recordings date from 1950 and the last is the items she sang at the opening of the Barcelona Olympics in 1992. Yes, you will find the ubiquitous "Clavelitos!" here, and a later version of "La maya el ruisenor" from "Goyescas". The enclosed booklet provides illuminating notes by Lionel Salter, who also translated many of the texts which are also included. Accompanists include Gerald Moore and Alicia de Larrocha, and Victoria de Los Angeles provides a guitar accompaniment herself in one song. The last track of all, a zapateado from a zarzuela, recorded live in New York, must almost have brought the house down.

The classical heritage .......2006-04-16

The visible embellishment of this noble instrument was enriched still more by the Spanish composers, who following the traces of his contemporaries. In the case of Fernando Sor, Haydn was his musical guide, where as Aguado, could establish himself with major vehemence, due its particular style, based in the notable right-hand articulation, eschewed the classical patterns, being able to print his own music a flamboyant and refined character.

In the particular case of Fernando Sor, we have a wisdom blending of the counterpoint technique, an evocative mood from his own that, added the well known influence of the Italian composers (Domenico Cimarrosa and Giovanni Batista Pergolesi) and his beloved love for the Operatic genre, allowed him to enrich still more the lyrical possibilities of the guitar. Besides, unlike Nicolo Paganini, for instance fortunately did not transform the guitar in a simple device to show his overwhelming gifts. He used the guitar to play music, on the opposite approach of Paganini who used the music as mere device to play his instrument.


In the guitar genre there has not been most deserved and superb tribute to Mozart that this Variations Op. 9 based on a motive of The most famous Mozart ?s Magic Flute. Loaded of such imaginative freshness and enraptured inspiration you may notice that one of the Variations conserves an undeniable Italian flavor; this is one of the most beloved hidden treasures the guitar can offers us, which raise with special charm in the hands of this formidable soloist.

Aguado on the contrary acquired due his personal state of things, a notable adroitness who excelled by far, to Sor, so his musical approaches rode in opposite directions, trying to exploit at maximum levels the technical possibilities of the instrument.


Julian Bream makes a colossal tribute to both composers in this egregious and golden album.

beautiful music.......2007-01-30

This is a brilliant album - Inti-Illimani, John WIlliams, Paco Peña? C'mon! This is music that will reward patient listeners. This is deeply soulful, social protest music. Non-Spanish speakers should try to track down the lyrics and find a way of translating them, to appreciate the meaning and the sentiment.
As for the reviewer who copies and pastes the same review for all his reviews of Inti-Illimani's discs... "...the use of this review section as a political venue to praise Allende..." - I don't think one line in a review makes it a political venue, but you have just made it into one with your few paragraphs praising Pinochet.

Let us learn to appreciate their great music without..........2005-12-30

It has been an enormous pleasure to listen to Inti Illimani for the past 20 years. Definitely great musicians and great recordings, to say the least. However the use of this review section as a political venue to praise Allende and call his deplorable and failed communist period in power exciting, and Pinochet's years "the frightening Pinochet years" (read reviews under The Best of Inti Illimani), can only come from the twisted mind of someone who still believes in 20th Century myths: the myth of Fidel Castro, the myth of Che Guevara, the myth of the proletariat, etc. Having survived 11 years in a communist country I know better, a lot better. All of us should by now. Unfortunately we do not. Look at Venezueza and now Bolivia, with the two puppets in power dancing to the music of Fidel Castro.
Frightening years for whom? For the communists and all members of the red tribe of disciples of Fidel Castro, of course. Today, to still call Pinochet a dictator and Fidel Castro "president" is beyond comprehension. Look at Chile today. Can anyone believe it could have become what it is now without eliminating Allende's regime and crushing the communists?
I give Inti Illimani an A for their music. Let us learn to appreciate their great music without praising their disastrous and failed political views. For that, they get capital F.

INTI'S MASTERWORK.......2005-11-13

I used to buy Inti's LPs when I was 12 and I was schooling in Italy.
It still remains one of my favourite musical groups of all time.
Fragments of a Dream is, simply put, their masterwork, the one where Horacio Salinas reaches the greatest heights of inspiration in a blend I would call, at times, "modern Latin American baroque".
It starts with a piece inspired by my fatherland's folk music, Sardegna, and ends with a dismantling-cum-reconstruction of the principle of the dance worthy of any great classical composer. Brilliant

Manns, Salinas, Peña, Williams, Inti una gran combinación........2000-05-08

Esta reunión increible de músicos en Europa consagra a los Inti Illimani como artistas de mentalidad muy abierta, pues comparten trabajo con grandes personajes de la guitarra. Horacio Salinas despierta el punto de encuentro para exponer una hermosa obra que son lo más fiel del título del album FRAGMENTOS DE UN SUEÑO, primera parte de un gran trabajo que continuará en Leyenda.

Quisiera ser paloma para volar.......1999-05-07

Se me saltaron las lagrimas escuchando En Libertad (son ya demasiados años fuera de mi tierra). Inti-Illimani buceando en sus raices hispanas, Inti-Illimani haciendo lo que saben hacer como pocos grupos en estos dias: crear musica con raices, de esa que te inunda el corazon de tristeza, de alegria, de melancolia, de nostalgia, de deseos de vivir.

A must have CD for Flamenco guitarists.......2006-08-09

This CD by Vicente Amigo is the most soulful flamenco guitar playing I have ever heard. The compositions are wonderful,and the recording is excellent, What else can I say ?other than it's a masterpiece. A must have CD. Bravo Vicente you are a musical avatar and genius.

go amigo !.......2006-03-21

i picked this up a few years ago, this being the first flamenco type cd i've own. i am no professor on flemenco music, but till this day i have not found anything that measures up; and i always keep an ear open to anything of such status.

amigo is a matador on the fretboard, playing in the ring of his feeling. he has unique lascivious style incorporating elements of grace, speed, strength, stillness and melliflous melody that leave one breathless wondering the source of its creativity. many flamenco guitarists get carried away displaying their dexterity and virtuoso on the strings of the guitar with furious forceful flurries of notes - which is fine, playing with flame is much part of the spanish way (flame/flamenco) and musicians must display skill - but loose sight of qualities such as melody, the light delicate playing touch and pockets of silence - complementing speed and power. vincent utilises this balance with grace. he lets emotion be his guide; its the backdrop behind the spontaneous motion of the music; combined with most supernal guitar skills, this is rare indeed, this IS potent.

sadly this work seems to be a one off, unequalled in his other cd's; maybe due to its inherent complexity of this work; i can't blame him; but then i hope he has not been influences by the media mincing machines that tend to slice up original talant that made someone someone in the first place and force them to produce stuff that apeals to the masses. amigo stop! take a step backwards. i pray i hear this genius of yours exercised at full stretch again someday. go go amigo.

Quite simply, a sonic masterpiece not to be overlooked.......2005-08-17

I was first exposed to Vicente Amigo several years ago through this work in Spanish Alejandro Sanz's hit "Corazon Partio" where he glided through the Spanish guitar effortlessly like a God. I later picked up this album and to me it's become a standard that equates to great Flamenco music any day. Born in Sevilla, and raised in Cordoba, he was winning international awards from an early age and playing alongside legends such as Paco de Lucia, Keith Richards and Bob Dylan as early as 1992.

"De Mi Corazon Al Aire" marked Vicente Amigo's debut, and the start of a career that has resulted in five more productions so far. The album is packed with awe inspiring moments that balance musical prodigy with touching melodies that transport you to the heart of Andalucia with no effort, with an occasional moorish touch here and there. It's hard to pick a favorite, but if forced to do it, it'd be "Morente". When I listen to it, I can close my eyes and picture myself sitting in a bar in one of Spain's pueblos blancos. Quite simply, a sonic masterpiece not to be overlooked.

Flamenco virtuoso, elegant, complex and beautiful!!.......2004-11-10

Vicente Amigo was taught by the great Manolo Sanlucar. His sounds are similar to Tomatito and Sanlucar however he has his own sound/style that is distinctive. There are complex arrangements in his work yet it is so elegantly put together that it really doesn't take away the feel and he is not a racer such as (paco delucia). This is one of my favorite flamenco cds and is his best. It is a shame his other cds fall short to this great masterpiece!! (I'll still buy anything of his that comes out)

Intense modern flamenco from a young, brooding maestro........2001-01-31

On the way from Granada to Cordoba, a Spanish friend put this into her cassette player and blew me away. An even newer way of playing real flamenco than Paco de Lucia.

Behind the apparent free-form abandon of flamenco are strictly laid down rhythmic and harmonic patterns that the guitar has to obey so that the dancers can do their stuff. It's playing within those strict rules and bending them that make it so exciting.

With this CD, the young Vicente Amigo (experienced accompanist to others) took centre stage for the first time and showed how to play real flamenco in a modern way. Not the limp, chug-along pseudo flamenco-lite of Ottmar Liebert, but rather astonishing virtuosity combined with power and tenderness.

The production compresses the sound somewhat, giving it a lot of edge, plus there are some studio tricks like echoes. But what you hear is basically just Vicente and his acoustic guitar. And unlike all those amped-up guitar heroes, this is a guy who could sound just as amazing in a power cut.

This one is highly recommended, even for easy listening aficionados - there's hardly any of that hard-edged flamenco singing. Also highly recommended, "Tauromagia" by Manolo Sanlucar, featuring an even younger Vicente.

Worth waiting for.
