"From the Middle Ages to Danzon"

 
Two instruments, two virtuosos come together to achieve a symbiotic relationship that provides excellent results: an album full of sounds, revelations of mutations. Yes, "From the Middle Ages to Danzon" (Quindecim Recordings, 2002) is a mosaic of different ways that people have expressed musically through the centuries and now are part of a universal heritage.
In addition, this results from the overlap of two talented Mexican musicians: flutist Horacio Franco and bassist Victor Flores, who managed to mate with their instruments in an almost perfect (could easily omit the "almost") to sound majestic, masterful.
In fact, a factor to note is the selection of topics that make up this CD, it is very balanced, allowing the harmonious interaction of the two instruments, as well as the possibility that each one shine, stand out, look, giving occasion for the musicians demonstrate their mastery and virtuosity, passion and sensitivity, as each interpretation reveals the soul and feeling of the performer.
As indicated in the booklet accompanying the disc: "The program 'From medieval to danzón' is, firstly, to unite the expressive possibilities of both instruments and techniques whose development has nothing to do either historically or timbre, but work excellently for 'telling' a path that is common to each other: the universality of musical language and, secondly, to demonstrate the quality and effectiveness of this language not only corresponds to a type of music. "
Indeed, the maestro Horacio Franco arrangements they make the contents of the disc is uniform and integrated, that is, naturally amalgamate the sounds of music 'educated' with 'popular' pieces from the classical repertoire with gems the danzón were selected.
"From the Middle Ages to danzón" was recorded at Laboratorio Arte Alameda (formerly Colonial Art Gallery) in October 1999 in the Auditorium "Blas Galindo" the National Arts Centre in May 2001. It is on sale in record shops and bookstores prestige.
