Salsa is a delectable melange of Cuban and Puerto Rican traditions plus brassy American big band arrangements--shaken not stirred. The term translates as "sauce," no doubt referring to what goes into making music spicy enough to tempt the Latin appetite. The style has covered a lot of ground since its inception in New York during the 1970s and now boasts fanatic adherents all over the globe. Some of these, such as Japan's Orquestra de la Luz, have achieved astonishingly literal recreations, but the most interesting permutations add a wicked local twist. For example, Scotland's Salsa Celtica perform in kilts, quote centuries-old Irish tunes, and sometimes explode into bagpipe solos. Italy's Havana Mambo features a baroque harpsichordist gamely pounding out montunos. Curaçao's own Arnell i Su Orkesta obviously admire Africando and other Senegalese salseros, while Shaan, from India, with their Santana-esque guitars and demented keyboards, are a Bollywood-tinged fever dream. -- Christina Roden

Awesome salsa from unexpected sources.......2005-03-12
This Cd will mostly appeal to hardcore salsa fans looking to expand their musical horizon. About half of the songs are in spanish with the other half in other languages which no one person would be expected to know all, but even those songs can be enjoyed due to their great rhythm and harmony. This CD is just as good for listening on the road as it is for dancing at a party.
P.S. As far as the definition of Salsa, salsa is usually defined not by what sub-rhythm it has, but rather its danceability. Salsa must be able to produce a meter of eight beats for a dancer to take six steps. This mixed with the percussion ensemble of Timbal, Conga, Bongos, Guirro, and/or Bell, etc. creates salsa, regardless of whether it is mambo, charanga, descarga, etc.

As this set's title implies, the 54 songs from nearly as many cultures all deal with happy community rituals. The four CDs are subtitled: "Dancing with the Gods: Religious Celebrations," "Earth Spirit: Cycles of Nature," "Passages: Turning Points in Life," and "Gatherings: Joyous Festivals." This music is more accessible and less rigorously authentic than "Voices of Forgotten Worlds;" it includes such "worldbeat" hybrid musics as Trinidadan soca, South African township jive, New Orleans Mardi Gras music, modern Celtic folk music, and African American gospel. --Geoffrey Himes
