And, as expected, the playing is very stylish, with great ensemble and nuance. (...)

The discovery of Gabriel García Márquez's book One Hundred Years of Solitude, in which the vivid literary images of clouds of yellow butterflies precede a forbidden lover’s arrival, inspired Dana to revisit her earliest musical memories.\r\n\r\nThis led to a unique project embodying the most characteristic expression of love in Latin-American culture.

They are so well known that practically every Spanish-speaking person can sing them by heart.\r\n\r\nWith arrangements by the legendary Joan Albert Amargós and Claudio Constantini, the recording conjures the surreal atmosphere of the Americas: melancholy, roughness, poetry, vitality and joy. These ‘recomposed’ boleros were arranged for solo viola and a small ensemble that consists of pianist \u003cstrong\u003eAnna Fedorova\u003c\/strong\u003e, trumpeter \u003cstrong\u003eAngelo Verploegen\u003c\/strong\u003e, bandoneonist \u003cstrong\u003eClaudio Constantini\u003c\/strong\u003e, double bassist \u003cstrong\u003eNicholas Schwartz\u003c\/strong\u003e and percussionist \u003cstrong\u003eAndré Groen\u003c\/strong\u003e.\r\n\r\n\u003cem\u003eThe smell of smoked sugar cane, corn and coffee; mysterious noises of strange creatures in the night, heavy rains, colibris around deep green-colored plants and powerful sharp colored flowers... All of this and so much more is to be heard in the rhythms and melodies of Latin American boleros. It was the familiarity of this colorful, almost surrealistic, atmosphere that struck me when I started discovering the literature of Gabriel García Márquez. One day, all these motives came together in one simple yet timeless moment while I was reading One Hundred Years of Solitude in the beloved Parque México in my place of birth, Mexico City. This is where it all began. I was sitting and reading surrounded by plants and birds, in my quiet oasis in the middle of this noisy and chaotic city, on one of those green ornamented benches that are so typical in the gardens of Mexico and are so dear to me since the times of my childhood\u003c\/em\u003e. - Dana Zemtsov\r\n\r\n\u003chr\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cstrong\u003eDana Zemtsov, Viola\u003c\/strong\u003e\r\n\u003cstrong\u003eAngelo Verploegen, Flugelhorn \u0026amp; Trumpet (Tracks 1, 3, 6, 8, 13-15)\u003c\/strong\u003e\r\n\u003cstrong\u003eClaudio Constantini, Bandoneon (Tracks 1, 4, 9, 11, 14)\u003c\/strong\u003e\r\n\u003cstrong\u003eNicholas Schwartz, Double Bass (Tracks 1, 3-8, 10, 11, 13-15)\u003c\/strong\u003e\r\n\u003cstrong\u003eAnna Fedorova, Piano (Tracks 1-3, 6-8, 12-15)\u003c\/strong\u003e\r\n\u003cstrong\u003eAndré Groen, Percussion (Tracks 3, 4, 6, 8, 11, 15) \u003c\/strong\u003e","brand":"Channel Classics","offers":[{"title":"DSD 512 \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":56741739430212,"sku":"CCS47525-21","price":35.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DSD 256 \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":56741739462980,"sku":"CCS47525-16","price":29.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DSD 128 \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":56741739495748,"sku":"CCS47525-15","price":25.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DSD 64 \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":56741739528516,"sku":"CCS47525-14","price":23.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DXD 32 Bit \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":56741739561284,"sku":"CCS47525-35","price":28.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DXD 24 Bit \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":57343087182148,"sku":"CCS47525-22","price":25.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0966\/7900\/2436\/files\/CCS47525.jpg?v=1790652312","url":"https:\/\/www.nativedsd.com\/products\/ccs47525-yellow-butterfly-latin-american-favourites","provider":"NativeDSD Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
