Francesca, a daughter of (South) America.......2006-01-10

This recording is an example about the talented and magic artists that South America produce. Francesca Ancarola, with an espectacular voice, has build on this record a bridge between the chilean traditional music and the jazz music, and also she has "blend" the languages to keep the sense of the lyrics, and transport its poetic adventure to new ears. Each song is an invitation, each musical arrange is a special mixture to enjoy and share...
Francesca have five previous productions in her country. She has explore differents musical styles: traditionals rythms from Chile, Peru, Mexico and Brazil, and also author-music (Victor Jara, Violeta Parra, Djavan, etc.).

Dynamic amazing soundtrack to Pablo Neruda documentary.......2007-05-06

Quique Cruz (Claudio Durán Pardo) has composed an exceptional score for the documentary-in-progress, "Pablo Neruda! Presente!," now entitled "Pablo Neruda: The Poet's Calling" with his new dynamic Latin Americana group Quijeremá. It draws from the musical roots of the Americas, incorporating jazz ideals with South American instruments and rhythms. The album is named "Tinta Verde," after the green ink in which Neruda wrote his poems.

This is a limited edition print. For more information of the movie please visit redpoppy dot net. Accompanies the best-selling, critically acclaimed edition of Neruda translations, The Essential Neruda: Selected Poems

Quique wrote: "The suite is composed in four parts with a flower at its center. The first part begins with tinta verde, in Neruda's southern Chile; a land of rain, forests, volcanoes, and lakes. This music is inspired by the Mapuche people, displaced from their land, still struggling to recover it. We use rhythmic and melodic elements as well as instruments from the region. In the introduction to his memoirs, (1974) Neruda wrote:

"Anyone who hasn't been in the Chilean forest doesn't know this planet. I have come out of that landscape, that mud, that silence, to roam, to go singing through the world." When Neruda was forced into exile, (1948) he went south, and on a horse, in a galope winka, he traversed the Mapuche land and crossed the Andes to safety in Argentina. In Residence on Earth, (1933) he included "Dead Gallop," a surrealist poem, almost as a premonition of his later journey.

The second part of the suite takes the listener slowly towards the center of the country, with its urban worries. Here we encounter kueca de la espuma (cueca is the national dance of Chile). Then we stop at isla negra, and from the house of the poet, we contemplate the Pacific Ocean, with its chaotic and enigmatic uncertainty.
In the middle of the piece, thinking of the love that Neruda had for Matilde Urrutia, a flower grew in the form of a waltz.

The third part is a detour from the Chilean journey, via Madrid, Spain, where Neruda lived and worked in the late 1930's. There he had a beautiful home, which he named the house of the flowers. The fascist troops of Franco, bombed and burned la casa de las flores to the ground. He wrote about the event in 1947, in his book The Third Residence. Also, an incident took place that transformed Neruda's life: his beloved friend, the playwright and poet, Federico García Lorca was assassinated by Franco's troops.

In the elegy for Lorca, I imagine the playwright pacing, waiting, maybe lighting his last cigarette, before being taken away to be killed and buried anonymously in a mass grave. The piece sings to him and his companions with the tears of Spain.

The fourth part, Macchu Picchu, draws from the rhythms, instruments and sounds of the Andean planet. First, the music sings to mother earth, la pachamama, when only pipes, flutes, drums, and seeds were used by musicians-before the Europeans appeared on the horizon. Neruda wrote one of his most celebrated poems "The Heights of Macchu Picchu" after visiting this ancient peak and its ruins. Then, in pachakuti -returning to earth-all the instruments unite to celebrate the never ending return of the poetry of Neruda to our lives. Finally, the suite ends with a reprisal as the bard returns to earth and to us all, on the hundredth anniversary of his birth.

Note: the music was recorded mostly live, without metronomes to keep a constructed sense of time. We chose certain takes for their interpretation, letting time flow free, natural, subterranean. . . as in concerts.

Mbira: the voice of Zimbabwe.......2000-09-30

Ephat Mujuru is one of if not the best mbira player in Zimbabwe and uses this perticular instrument in a way never heard before. With strong lyrics ( in shona, one of the traditional language of Zimbabwe ) and a powerful voice he sings about the old traditions used in Zimbabwe until this day. Every song tell a story of the growth and cultures of Zimbabwe and are very powerful especially to the shona people. This album is a must get.
