Audio CD Description

This album pairs one of the greatest flamenco singers of today, cantaor Diego El Cigala, with one of Cuba's finest Afro-Cuban pianists, Bebo Valdes. With Valdes (father of the great Chucho Valdes) born in 1918, there's a 40-year age difference between the pianist and the singer, but they do a fine job crossing generations and oceans to discover the commonalities between Caribbean and the Iberian music, coming up with a romantic marriage of the two cultures using rumbas, guajira, sons and boleros. All the songs are classics out of the Latin music tradition, using just a handful of players in support. Valdes's fingers are delicate and prone to dramatic flourishes; Cigala's voice is pure flamenco in its hoarse intonation, cadence and emotional outpourings. The two masters make the union work by focusing on the drama of the love songs--"Veinte Años," "Inolvidable" and the title track are just three amazing examples--as fuel for some of the most exquisitely passionate music to come out in ages. --


Comments From Our Customers

Elegant Flamenco

In this CD, flamenco is sung accompanied by a piano and the traditional Spanish guitar. The result is excellent.


I don't even speak spanish...

I saw the live performance titled "Blanco y Negro En Vivo" on PBS a while back and was enthralled. I had to have this amazing music - even though I didn't speak a word of Spanish. Not finding a CD of the performance [but one can purchase the DVD here on Amazon] I bought "Lagrimas Negras" instead.


Scintillating!!

This is the most fantastic album - it gets into your bones!!
