Sin Rumba, no hay Son! - Without Rumba there is no Son! The opening tune, Embale tiene la llave, cuts to the chase with lead singer Eugenio Rodríguez Rodríguez, who is known as “Raspa” for the agreeably rough timbre of his voice, trading close-harmony licks with his cohorts. Number six, La Rumba no es como ayer, a percussive beauty, finds all hips in motion. The ninth tune, La Mulata rumbera, spotlights guest artist Bertha Portuondo’s plangent tone, high spirits and exquisite phrasing; she often toys with the beat, playfully lagging a touch behind while kicking up her heels in joyous abandon. On the eleventh track, Me dieron la clave, another great rumbero, Emilio Moret wields his lustrous tenor with a youth’s directness and a master’s subtlety. Each of the 14 selections unfurls like rum-tinged cigar smoke, swooning, exuberant, sexy and plaintive; as intricate as chamber-music, as liltingly sensual as a slow-dance, as sweetly guileless as a lullaby, as primal as the throbbing heart of a conga drum. harmonia mundi UK Ltd, 45 Vyner Street, London E2 9DQ (tel) 020 8709 9500 (email) [email protected] NEW RELEASES 20th September File under: World SABOR DE GRÀCIA Sabor Pa’ Rato World Village 498037 8427592001338 CD World/Spain/Catalan The Catalan rumba is a popular musical current of Gypsy roots which arose in Barcelona in the mid-fifties. It emerged as the confluence of two western music traditions: flamenco and Afro- Cuban. It was combined by Catalan Gypsies into a new style of urban folklore through the assimilation of Afro-Latin patterns into their flamenco musical tradition. Sabor de Gràcia comes up as the Catalan rumba band most abreast of its time thanks to this magic formula. After mov- ing closer to Latin American traits in later years, it wishes now to go back home to the roots of this crossbred, provocative and hedonist style that used to set everybody dancing wherever it was played. The town of Gràcia is now a genuine Gypsy quarter. This is indeed where the true nature of the Catalan rumba represented by Sabor de Gràcia (Taste of Gracia) is to be found. They are a young though experienced band who know how to connect with a faithful public eager to enjoy the rumba. Sabor pa’rato is their fourth album, a vibrant recording that marks the first collaboration with World Village. JOÃO BOSCO & NDR BIG BAND Senhoras Do Amazonas Yellowbird YEB77162 767522771626 CD digipack World/Brazil First discovered by Tom Jobim and Vinícius de Moraes, the brilliant composer/vocalist/guitarist Joao Bosco is one of the main figures of MPB (Música Popular Brasileira). His 2006 release Obrigada Gente! Ao Vivo (Universal Brazil) has sold over 100,000 copies in his homeland. In Europe he is one of the “secret pearls” of Brazilian singer-songwriter music still to be discovered by a larger audience. Admired as a versatile vocalist and a dynamic performer, Bosco has been noted for his singular fusion of Arab culture, Afro-American music and Brazilian styles bossa nova influenced by American jazz. This studio album with Germany’s NDR Big Band stemmed from a joint Brazilian tour in 2007.

Une Dalida qui aurait emprunté le chemin inverse, l’emmenant des faubourgs de Bruxelles au relatif anonymat de la capitale égyptienne. Natacha Atlas est surtout, depuis une vingtaine d’années, l’incarnation de ce que la world music peut offrir de mieux sur scène, mélangeant des racines orientales, faites de danses du ventre et de youyous hululés, à des rythmes électroniques plus européens, souvenirs de son passage, au début des années 1990, dans le groupe Transglobal Underground. Depuis toujours, elle aime faire le grand écart, construire un pont entre deux rives qu’elle seule semble à même de réunir. Pour sa nouvelle tournée, cette crooneuse des sables s’est entourée d’un aréopage de musiciens issus tout autant du jazz que du folklore arabe. Le résultat est toujours aussi envoûtant, qu’elle entonne le remarquable Rise to Freedom, en hommage à la révolution du Nil de 2011, ou reprenne le joyau qu’est River Man, un titre du compositeur anglais Nick Drake. Natacha Atlas n’aime pas les barrières, encore moins les interdits. Femme du monde, héritière des grandes voix moyen-orientales, on pense à Oum Kalsoum ou à la diva libanaise Fairouz, elle est capable de nous émerveiller avec un concert digne des mille et une nuits étoilées.

  • Level 42 Highlights from Retroglide
    Level 42 highlights from retroglide Retroglide was released in September 2006 and was the first Level 42 album in twelve years. Although the album featured all the supporting musicians from the current Level 42 live band (Gary Husband, Lyndon Connah, Nathan King, Sean Freeman) as well as original keyboard player Mike Lindup, it was written solely by Mark King and Boon Gould. The album was released on the W14 label, part of the Universal group and featured artwork from Alan Brooks, who had created the artwork for many of the band’s early records. The cover art also saw the reappearance of the ‘princess’, who was featured on the cover of the first Level 42 record. Retroglide was eagerly anticipated by the group’s fanbase, who were hungry for new material from the band. The resulting album updated the classic Level 42 sound, although certain trademarks - such as King’s slap bass playing and the use of additional sequenced bass parts remained. Others, such as Lindup’s falsetto backing vocals were for the most part absent since at the point that he rejoined the band the album was almost complete. Although Retroglide was not a large scale commercial success, it quickly became popular with fans, and the new songs were well-received on the subsequent tour, which featured Mike Lindup now firmly back in the fold. The band toured in support of the album in Autumn of 2006 and released a Retroglide Live DVD the following year. ‘Dive Into The Sun’ Intro The opening track ‘Dive Into The Sun’ is classic Level 42 and is driven by a powerful riff-based groove from King.

  • Nick Drake and the Baroque Characteristics of His Music Mckendrick Bearden
    Nick Drake and the Baroque Characteristics of His Music McKendrick Bearden This paper was written for Dr. Callaway’s Music History course. Born in the British Colony of Burma in 1948 and brought up in the English countryside of Warwickshire, Nick Drake has become one of the most influential and celebrated folk artists of the twentieth century. Strangely enough, the popularity his music enjoys now was not gained until thirty years after his death in 1974. In his music we find the use of extremely unusual guitar tunings, pastoral and simplistic lyrics, beautiful melodies, and an extraordinary high emotional level that has evoked responses from many who have written about his work. He is now known as one of the most important folk singer/ songwriters to have ever lived, though much of his music sets him apart from the contemporary folk artists the 20th century. Nick Drake has influenced countless musicians and songwriters since his early passing, and the reason for his influence may well lie in the characteristics and influences of his songs that make them so different from other folk artists of era. Trevor Dann discusses his influences as “avant-garde jazz, classical music, especially choral music, what we’d now call ‘world music’, and the blues” (p.13). Many articles and reviews describe his music as having a baroque quality or influence. Whether it is referring to the string arrangements in several of his songs or the sweeping orchestral quality of his guitar, most commentators never fail to observe a Baroque tinge. Nick Drake’s first album Five Leaves Left introduced listeners to his ornate guitar accompaniments and baroque orchestrations that are now synonymous with his work.
