5.0 out of 5 stars Not all baroque sounds like Bach, 28 Nov 2001
By Juan Pablo Pira - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Jácaras, Vol.1 (Audio CD)
This excellent recording treats us to a different baroque. Not the extremely elaborate fugues, chorales, and operas most people immediately think of when they hear "baroque". Many of the pieces are dance music, but not the kind of dances you would find in Bach cello, violin or lute suite. This is music someone can actually dance to. Even though the music is definitely baroque, some of these pieces sound like flamenco (like Jacaras por la E), and some other sounds like South American music (La Jota sounds somehow like "pajaro campana").

A discussion of the Alfabeto letters that show up in the titles of the pieces would have been nice; when you see "por la E" or "por la B" Murcia did not mean in the key of E or in the key of B. He was reffering to the names of the main chord in each of the pieces by an old guitar-chord naming system.

Highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars Air to breathe, food to nourish, the music to exist!, 18 Mar 2000
By gps - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Jácaras, Vol.1 (Audio CD)
First I purchased "Luz y Norte" with The Harp Consort, dir. A. Lawrence-King (Deutsche Harmonia Mundi 05472 77340 2) and got obsessed with the music. Wheather sad or jolly I have had to listen to it. And "!Jacaras!" came next. Beautiful playing, so sensitive; and all musicians are absolute masters! This is the addiction I have no option but follow. Try it for yourself.

5.0 out of 5 stars Even the kids love it!, 30 Sep 2006
By Art Mama - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Jácaras, Vol.1 (Audio CD)
I'm no expert on Baroque guitar music; I just know this is extravagantly wonderful music, performed with brio. It sounds so fresh & contemporary (think Gypsy Kings) that it's hard to believe it was composed almost 300 years ago. And my 3 & 5-year-olds really enjoy it. This has been our soundtrack for getting to kindergarten all month.
