Bari

Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com
Some may complain that Ojos De Brujo is simply the latest group to pillage flamenco music, but they'd be missing the point. This Barcelona band grew up with the flamenco tradition while also devouring a steady diet of hip-hop, punk, funk, gypsy and Middle Eastern music, so the inclusion of rapping, turntables and funk grooves is a logical one for these upstarts. Marina "La Canillas" Abad doesn't have the range that a conservatory-trained singer might have, but she makes up for it with her vivid, socially conscious lyrics and staccato delivery, which can skitter into rapid-fire rapping that resonates surprisingly well with flamenco's chattering rhythms. Indeed, the group is unafraid to mix anything: "Naita" starts out as a traditional song before breaking into a techno finale. More graceful is the fusion on "Memorias Perdías," which meshes flamenco, gypsy and swing jazz. One of the most hotly anticipated releases of the spring, Bari has a punky spirit that will make it a pick on many year-end lists. –-Tad Hendrickson

If you love upbeat flamenco complete with vocals and lots of stomping and clapping, get this CD right now. It's so hard to find anything like this in the States - it makes me want to quit my life and move to Sevilla today!

5 out of 5 stars Flamenco and hip hop fusion that works.......2006-02-27

Ojos de Brujo, "Eye of the Wizard", is a musician collective from Catalan Spain. Their music base is Flamenco but they bravely mix hip-hop, rap, and jazz in a fused frenzy of originality. Unlike most music fusions, Ojos de Brujo is able to remain true to its roots and still produce a unique sound. Their Bari Album of 2002 is their second release and the first time I heard it I was amazed at how they were able to join the deeply emotional lyrics of Flamenco with the more urban and street sound of hip-hop. Their lead singer, Marina Abad, can inspire deep emotions with her traditional Flamenco renditions but she inspires amazement when she breaks into a rap in the middle of the song Zambra. I hate to admit that I have been very biased when it comes to hearing rap from European bands, and usually found their attempts innocent at best, compared to the more real sound we hear in the USA. But Ojos de Brujo pulls it off because they are rapping about their emotions and world, and are able to incorporate rap lyrics into the pulse and rhythm of Flamenco, a music genre that is very much in their blood as much as culture. Do not get me wrong, 75% of the music is Flamenco on this album, but just when you think it is just the same traditional beat, they mix it up and hit you with a completely new sound. Ojos de Brujo is one of those jewels of originality and inspiration that you find by word of mouth, or by mistake, but when you hear them you know you are listening to something special. Ojos de Brujo's Bari album is a fruit of that genius and like all genius; it is fleeting and only temporary.

5 out of 5 stars Rare energy.......2005-12-28

This isn't flamenco fused with anything, this is a brand new recipe and it comes off fantastic. Energetic, with a strong flamenco beat cooked in with a variety of styles to produce an amazing collection of really excellent songs. If you like any of the new style flamenco with a beat, this is a must. Of the 30 second sample cuts provided by Amazon, listen to #2 Tiempo De Solea, and #5 Quien Engana No Gana, that will give you an excellent idea of how strong this album is.

5 out of 5 stars excellent music from Spain.......2005-11-28

I heard this for the first time in Mexico City, and I just absolutely loved it from the outset. Especially thrilling is track 5 "quien engana no gana." An incredibly successful blend of traditional and modern. Also check out Radio Tarifa.

5 out of 5 stars mezcla exquisita de techno/flamenco.......2006-08-01

Think jalepenos, cream cheese & strawberries, curried bananas in cream, butter & saltines.. Things that many people haven't thought would go together, maybe? But once once you've tasted them, you realise they are a natural symbiosis, just like...

Electronica fused with flamenco. Not the ostentatious guitar work you might normally associate with the word flamenco - no, this is more subtle, a female flamenco vocal set to relentlessly lax, expansive techno arrangements; liberally garnished with traditional percussion, light touches of flamenco guitar and gypsy fiddlework.

Y lo quiero tanto!

I understand these are remixes. Can't speak to how they differ from the originals, yet. Give me a couple weeks, I'll be acquiring more music from these guys. Would reccomend that you do, as well.

Much better than pickles & peanutbutter, this.

5 out of 5 stars Nicola Di Bari Rocks My World!!.......2004-06-17

Di Bari's voice is magical. It moves me. Every time I hear him sing I get sexited. Io ti amo Nicola!!! (Mi amore)

5 out of 5 stars an international hit maker.......2003-12-05

Nicola Di Bari's smoky, gravelly voice was a familiar sound in the '60s and '70s, and his music has weathered well; marvelously melodic, these songs are classics, and performed with excellent musicianship throughout. My favorite track is the exquisite song by the Argentinian folk/pop singer/songwriter Piero, "Pedro Nadie", and it is surprising, but Nicola's rendition of it may actually be better than Piero's, something that as an ardent Piero fan I almost hate to admit.

Five of the songs were written by Di Bari, and most translated into Spanish, as Nicola had a huge following in Latin America and was equally comfortable singing in either language. "Io e te Maria" and "Picolla Donna" are sung in Italian, and "Il cuore e' uno zingaro" ("El corazon es un gitano"), "Il giorni del Arcobaleno" ("Los dias del Arco Iris"), "Como le Viole" ("Como Violetas") and Chitarra suona piu piano" ("Guitarra suena mas bajo") are sung first in Spanish and then repeated in the last tracks in their original versions.

Di Bari had his first big hit in 1964, and won First Prize in the illustrious San Remo Festival twice, with "Cuore e un zingaro" in '71, and "Il giorni del Arcobaleno" in '72, and continued to have much success into the '80s. A unique singer /songwriter, his music endures, and is always a pleasure to listen to. In this excellent compilation the sound is quite good considering the age of the recordings, and the total time 70'22.

5 out of 5 stars Pure listening pleasure.......1998-12-09

Nicola di Bari has a wonderfully expressive, sometimes "gravelly", sometimes smooth, always sexy, masculine voice. Although he is Italian, on this CD, he offers an interesting and very pleasing range of songs in Spanish; and he then repeats some of them in Italian, demonstrating his "dominio de los idiomas" as well as his impressive musical talent in both languages. This CD is well worth the money, and the time spent in pure listening pleasure.

    Album Description

    Berliners say New York's Rebecca Garfein is causing a revival of Reform Judaism in Germany; this mezzo-soprano is making history with her music, recorded in the country where her great -grandmother perished in the Holocaust. In 1997, she became the first female cantor to sing in a synagogue in Germany; where she performed as part of Berlin's International Jewish Cultural Festival; and this exquisite 1998 release captures that ground - (and stained-glass ceiling) - breaking moment. It contains Jewish songs and prayers in Hebrew and Yiddish, selections from the Book of Ruth and Song of Songs - liturgical music previously only chanted my male clergy - operatic in character, performed in what was once the women's gallery in the Oranienburger Strasse Synagogue before its destruction. This live performance was attended by Jews and non-Jews, women and men, together, shattering the historical separation of faiths and genders. Beautiful, significant, and highly recommended!

    1 out of 5 stars Not at all what I expected.......2006-01-21

    Hmm... Ok, maybe it was not the best reason to want to buy this CD, but I heard one of the songs on it, Hashkiveynu, performed (partially) during an episode of the West Wing, and it sounded AMAZING (it was NOT the same cantor as on this CD). I am not Jewish and not even very spiritual, but I wanted to have that song in my collection.
    I immediately searched the web for the info, got the name of the chant and found this CD. I almost purchased it without listening, when I found a different site, where they actually have rather long excerpts (2 min.) of most tracks, so I listened to them.
    Boy, was I relieved and disappointed at once! Relieved that I didn't buy the CD and disappointed that I couldn't get the song I wanted (I was willing to buy a whole CD for just 1 song, that's how much it impressed me).
    The song sounds very little like the one from the West Wing, although I do believe that the site where I found the info speficially pointed to this CD as having a recording of the same song used in the show. And I'm sorry to say it but the voice also doesn't hold a candle to the one used on the show - way too "operatic", as mentioned by many, and harsh and even unpleasant-sounding to me. It took all the charm and candor right out of the song (in the show, they had a much more natural voice do the song). I also agree that the choir does not mesh well with the soloist.
    If anyone knows where and if I can purchase a recording of this song done by a different singer (if it can be the one from the West Wing, I'll be thrilled), please, let me know. In the meantime, I'm passing on this CD...

    5 out of 5 stars Marvelous.......2006-01-11

    What a voice...!

    5 out of 5 stars A Brilliant Cantorial Performance.......2004-01-27

    Cantor Rebecca Garfein has a magnificent voice which expresses the oft-overlooked nuances in the music she has chosen for this recording. Able to perform equally well in the metzo soprano and soprano ranges, the cantor delights the listener with thrilling high notes and sultry lower registers.

    Organist-Choirmaster Arnold Ostlund, Jr. skillfully chooses registrations which enhance both the cantorial performance and the superb choral blend.

    5 out of 5 stars Jewish songs and prayers beautifully sung!.......2004-01-18

    Cantor Rebecca Garfein's Sacred Chants is a memorial tribute to the cultural and spiritual greatness of the pre-war German Jewish synagogue. Some of the numbers were composed by Jews on Jewish themes -- for example, Mah Tovu by Cantor Meir Finklestein or Ahavat Olam by Cantor Morris Barash. Other numbers were composed by non-Jews, but they express traditional Jewish values. Throughout, Cantor Garfein sings with love and passion in the spirit of her tradition. Additionally, the beautiful organ music is wonderful to hear for those of us who have enjoyed hearing organ music as part of our Reform Jewish liturgy.

    3 out of 5 stars Good but is this Jewish?.......2004-01-07

    I have to admit, it am in the process of converting and wanted a contemporary collection of Jewish music in the house. I was especially excited because it featured a female cantor. Unfortunately, I played this CD and it...reminded me of church not synagogue! Lovely for what it is though, with the opera voice, choir and organ music. Not quite what I expected.
