Juan Diego Flórez ; with instrumental acc.



Juan Diego Flórez's passion for Latin American music started at an early age in Peru, with songs from Cuba and Mexico, especially those by José Alfredo Jiménez. Flórez hopes to convey a representative image of the Latin American continent using songs that are all exemplary of the people and their various countries. The musical journey include Venezuelan "Caballo Viejo" as well as music from Columbia and the Argentine protest song "Sólo le pido a Dios." There's also "Aquarela do Brasil" from Brazil and finally classics like "Guantanamera" from Cuba. This album is certainly Floréz's most personal one so far.
