Product Description

Review

Chango Spasiuk...is one of the great originals of the Latin music scene: an instrumentalist and composer who has popularised and transformed the country music of northeastern Argentina. He plays the accordion and specialises in chamamé, a local dance style that the elite of Buenos Aires never took seriously until he showed how it could be performed with subtlety, elegance and sophistication. This set shows why he is so special. It consists mostly of instrumental pieces filled with delicate mood changes, in which he switches, often within the same track, from rousing dance music to rapid-fire flurries and lyrical passages that reflect the wide open spaces of his home region. He is matched by equally versatile violin and cello, plus the fluid guitar work of Sebastian Villaba, who provides the sturdy vocals on three tracks. Spasiuk starts a British tour next week, and he is even better heard live. --Robin Denselow, The Guardian, 13 February, 2009

An early contender for album of the coming year. --fRoots

Pynandi - Los Descalzos

Relaxing, pleasing to the ear music. Nice to listen to a specialised sound, the accordion, in the Chamame style of Argentina.

Not your stereotype accordion... 12 Mar 2009
By Alan Eddings - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD
Speaking as an accomplished accordionist (who never, ever plays "Lady of Spain"), Chango Spasiuk is an outstanding example of what the instrument can do for classic folk music. Myron Floren would even be proud.

Magical! 5 May 2009

I had caught part of an NPR story on this album and on a whim got it - am so glad I did! This is wonderful music, full of interlaced rhythms and weaving melodies.
