CD Reviews

I can't stop playing this CD!

"I bought this CD without having heard a song on it based on a upcoming latin fusion workshop with Sonia of the Bellydance Superstars. I can't stop playing it I love it so much! My only problem is picking out which song I'm going to use for my next solo. If you enjoy traditional Cuban music and can appreciate the arabic singing, then I'd highly recommend this CD. Enjoy!"

Against-nature fusion of Arabic and Cuban music that works!

"It was well past midnight, but the narrow cobbled streets of the city's old Pelourinho section of Salvador da Bahia were still alive with music. In one small courtyard, people danced to a mixture of salsa, rumba and Latin rhythms combined with Arabic musical melodies sung by Lebanese singer Hanine y son Cubano. This was Bahia's Mercado Cultural, or Latin American Cultural Market, a six-day event that brings together performers, agents and producers of music, dance and theater. This was my first encounter with one of the most successful fusion acts we've ever encountered. I know that Arabic melodies combined with Cuban son sounds like a mind-bender, but check it out for yourself... Hanine's first recording, 'Arabo Cuban' became the top-selling Lebanese album for an entire year.
