Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars CLASSIC CLASSICS OF THE AMERICAS, VOL. 1.......2002-09-12

I bought Clasicos de las Americas in 6 volume CDs because Latin and South American music is not something I have. Sure Cervantes was known to me by Danza Cubana, and I'd heard Louis Moreau Gottschalk's Negro, Creole, and American music from the time around the Civil War. Gottschalk is pure fun salon. I wish he had not died so soon because he is lively. The Banana Tree, Negro Dance, and Savannah are worth the cost of the CD.
Manuel Saumell Robredo's Four Country Dances will take some getting used to. Cervantes' Farewell to Cuba is touching as is The Departed One Who Will Never Return.
Amazon has volume 1 through 4 in Limited Availability, as is the six volume set.
Georges Rabol has done everything from Gershwin to Pop to Rock. His Charbrier Piano Works are something I will look into.
