SOME
AUDIO SAMPLES
- "Balada
para Martin Fierro" of Ariel Ramirez is a solo guitar
piece played by Raphaella (the book "Martin Fierro" of José
Hernandez is a tribute to the way of life of the gaucho on the pampa's,
and it is considered by many as the national epic poem of Argentina) ;
- "Hop"
of Sergio Assad is a duet by Liliana and Raphaella (about a loving couple
of trapeze artists, sailing in the air) ;
- the title song "Reina
de la Noche" of Jorge Cardoso is performed in trio by
Liliana, Raphaella and Jorge (about the heartbeat of the dazzling nightlife).
WHAT
OTHER PEOPLE SAY
Hein Sanderink wrote in El Maestro (EGTA-Netherlands magazine):
"The combination voice plus two guitars should
be used more often. The guitar duo Smits-Cardoso is perfectly
adjusted. Tone and timing are completely in balance. For the
singer Liliane Rodriguez it must have been a pleasure to work with such
excellent musicians.
The songs have been written just right for the Argentine singer. With
her splendid voice, the necessary temperament and an inborn instinct for
style, she puts down a matchless interpretation of this
South American repertoire. Rodriguez sings 'con sentimento popular', but
splendidly dosed and at the correct places.
Raphaella Smits’s playing carries the CD, because she accounts for
the five solo works and she has an important share in all remaining works.
Raphaella may be called quite rightly the ambassador of a particular tone
culture. This could easily become the favourite CD of many guitar lovers.
An absolute must!"
Ray Verhaeghe said:
"For this anthology the artists have choosen
consciously for diversity in unity. The texts covers a direct popular
idiom, as well as verses of topclass literature. The music, with its genuine
South American heartbeat, ranges from dance character up to impressionistic
composing. A highly authentic and valuable performance:
passionate, melodious and poetic. Very successful!".
