Cuban music filled with melancholy and passion, performed by a seasoned voice.
Produced by Ry Cooder, this Ibrahim Ferrer solo album conveys deep emotion through sophisticated recordings of traditional Cuban music.
This solo album by Ibrahim Ferrer was produced following the success of Buena Vista Social Club. While maintaining the traditional son and bolero forms, Ry Cooder's skill adds a modern touch. Ferrer's voice is both mellow and lustrous, quietly speaking of the joys and sorrows of life. The soft sounds of the trumpet and tres are also impressive, making this a record that conveys the profound beauty of Cuban music.
