  • Description

    Jordi Savall invites you on a journey to Brazil, Cuba, Guadeloupe, Guinea, Haiti, Mali, Mexico, and Colombia. In this remarkable album, he unites his customary en-sembles with musicians from across the Caribbean in a programme spanning nearly five centuries. Traversing the sonic landscapes shaped by the slave routes, the recording traces how African rhythms, European forms and indigenous voices converged into something unmis-takably Caribbean. The result is at once harrowing and luminous: laments and lamentations rub shoulders with exuberant dances, breath-taking ornaments and hypno-tic percussion. Savall's direction is, as ever, both scho-larly and deeply humane, restoring dignity to silenced histories through music of overwhelming poignancy. A testament to resilience, this is beauty forged in tragedy -- essential listening.
