An embarrassment of riches that would make any red-blooded Americanist glow with pride, Eternamente Manzanero<\/i> pleasantly synthesizes the quality, style and sounds of an outstanding team of professionals in this New World production.<\/p>\n
Recorded in Tarzana, California, the slow and romantic bolero<\/i> genre anchors this album. All songs featured were pulled from Mexican native Armando Manzanero\u2019s<\/a>compositions spanning over a fifty year period. Winner of the 2014 Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award<\/a>, the music world owes much of the popularization of the bolero filin<\/i>\u2014a Cuban style that enhanced the traditional bolero with jazzier chords and vocal intepretations\u2014to Manzanero, the premier Mexican composer of romantic music of the post-war era.<\/p>\n Ten time Grammy Award-winning Cuban trumpeter Arturo Sandoval<\/a> is most popularly known for his virtuosic improvisational ability and his flawless execution of musical acrobatics in the upper tessitura. Presenting his listeners with a reserved approach in Eternamente Manzanero<\/i>, Sandoval continues to redefine his musical reputation. On this release, his role as principal vocalist is a surprising stretch and his interpretation of Armando\u2019s carefully chosen repertoire is delightful. Most impressive is Arturo\u2019s crooning ability and subtle trumpet adornment in \u201cVoy a Apagar la Luz<\/a>,\u201d all transformed by the scrumptious string arrangements of Argentine composer, orchestrator, arranger and co-producer of the album Jorge Calandrelli<\/a>. Projecting longing and loss in \u201cTe Extra\u00f1o<\/a>,\u201d pointed musical influence from the southern cone is heard through the use of the accordion. And for those that can\u2019t get enough of the pop-jazz sound, \u201cNo Se Tu<\/a>\u201d is a definite must-listen.<\/p>\n Eternamente Manzanero<\/i> can be described as a contemporary Latin-jazz album that unifies the vast experience and musical curiosity of three music giants of Latin America. A recommended purchase for lovers of jazz-pop fusion and fans of Manzanero, Sandoval, and Calandrelli. What do you get when you fuse three of the most prolific musicians, arrangers and composers of today\u2019s pop-jazz commercial recording industry? An embarrassment of riches that would make any red-blooded Americanist glow with pride, Eternamente Manzanero pleasantly synthesizes the quality, style and sounds of an outstanding team of professionals in this New World production.
