In this album
of vintage "Latin-American Themes", Directional
Sound has achieved
the memorable set of musical experiences ranging
from exotic
evocations of passion to festively abandoned dance music.
Rarely has so
strikingly contrasting an instrumentation been used in
this kind of
program. Because of the superior skills of Directional
Sound's engineers,
the entire range of timbres as well as the subtlest
nuances of all
the percussions have been fully and vividly captured.
