Editorial Reviews

Product Description
Andalusia has its symbols: amongst them, mauve and gold. Mauve (morao) is the color of the Christ de los Gitanos and Holy Week. The color gold (oro) calls to mind the world of bullfighting, the sand in the arena, the costumes of the bullfighters, and the clothing of the Saints and Blessed Virgins. "Morao" is also the name of one of the oldest, most musical gypsy families in Jerez – from which Moraíto himself is descended. With this CD Moraíto wished to evoke those two colors, which conjure up his own musical world. Native to Jerez, a real fief of Flamenco, Moraíto is one of the biggest guitarrista or tocaor solo in Flamenco. He succeeded in becoming as great in accompanying cante as he is unique in being a virtuoso soloist.

Customer Reviews:

The heart of flamenco.......2000-06-12

This very well recorded CD shows Moraito using the idiom of Flamenco and the guitar to produce "pure music": intense and concentrated, fresh as an improvisation, full as an orchestral score. This is a must for any musician. Not for background music.

Moraito is the BOMB!.......2000-05-30

I decided to check out Moraito due to Richard Brune's ravings (the famous guitar builder and guitarist). I am speechless, this is really pure flamenco but also very virtuosic and filled with a modern approach. I would recommend this to people who are into Sabicas, Paco, and stuff like Tomatito, but wouldn't recommend it to people who just want to buy some Rumba dance stuff (not that there is anything worng with that...) Beautiful album and a shame that outside of Spain he is rather obscure...
