Product Description
One of the Two Giants (The Other Being Pablo Milanes) of a Highly Political Folk Music Known as 'nuevo Trova'. The Movement's Influences Include the South American 'nueva Canción' ('new Song') Movement and the Poetry of Artists Like Bob Dylan and the Beatles. Rodríguez' Thin but Expressive Tenor Sings with Poetic, Often Obscure Lyrics and Beautiful, Atypical Melodies. Rodriguez Originally Used Simple Acoustic Instrumental Arrangements as Backup, but Expanded the Variety of Players on his Recording During the 80's. Consequentially, the More Sophisticated Arrangements Borrowed from Classical Music, Reggae, Pop and Traditional Cuban Rhythms. Recently, He Has Revisited the Minimal Guitar-based Acoustic Arrangements of the Early Years and Enlisted the Help of La Orquesta Sinfonica Nacional De Cuba to Record this Album. 'expedicion (Expedition)' is a Symbol of Rodriguez' Musical Journey, this Chapter Three Years in the Making, all Are New Songs Save for Three Re-recordings of Older Classics.

EXPEDICION HACIA EL CENTRO ...........2005-04-05

SILVIO RODRIGUEZ ES CUBANO...... NO ES EL ITALIANO PAVAROTTI, NI EL MEJICANO LUIS MIGUEL, PARA NUESTRA FORTUNA. ES EL MEJOR CRONISTA DE LOS PENSARES Y SENTIRES DE TODA LA AMERICA NUESTRA. TODA LA OBRA DISCOGRAFICA DE ESTE TROVADOR LATINOAMERICANO ES UN ROMPECABEZAS BIEN PENSADO Y SENTIDO DEL CUAL EXPEDICION ES UNA PIEZA QUE ENCAJA PERFECTAMENTE EN SU BITACORA DE VUELO. LOS NAUFRAGOS DE IDENTIDAD PUEDEN SEGUIR EL CAMINO TRAZADO POR SILVIO........ES GRATIS.

naufrago.......2003-12-04

Silvio Rodriguez no es Pavarotti, ni Luis Miguel. Su pequena voz combina mejor con una guitarra acustica que con un rabo de nube de violines.
La portada es una cursillada que me recuerda al último vidioclip "Dreamer" de Ozzy Ozzborne. Que poeticos son los arlequines!

GRACIAS SILVIO.......2002-12-11

Realmente maravilloso, se deja escuchar de largo como lo era Al Final de este Viaje, puedes escuchar todo el repertorio y pensar que pasaron cinco minutos. Debe tener algo mágico de parte de "El Aprendiz de Brujo" pues mi hija de apenas dos años y medio goza con el disco y pide que lo toquen, especialmente, Totí. Simplemente MARAVILLOSO, ya no sorprende. Gracias Silvio.

Expedicion not a revolution.......2002-09-10

Being a fan of Silvio's guitar-based work, I should admit my prejudice upfront, which is that this is heavily orchestral production, signficiantly free of Silvio's guitar playing. Some songs would be stronger, one can tell, if a guitar (or any bassier intrument) were present to add some weight to the song structure. But in addition to this, Expedicion might not excite loyal listeners because there is a serious lack of revolutionary ideology in these songs. And as largely a collection of 'romantic songs' these lack the intimate feel and philosophical intelligence of his trademark work. Still, a very talented artist offering well crafted songs, if not watered down to reach, it would seem, a larger, less critical audience.

Silvio, Poeta........2002-07-28

Este album es maravilloso. Cada cancion es un poema. Los arreglos son diferentes a los albumes previos. Diferentes pero hermosos. Son arreglos sobrios, casi clasicos(en su mayoria), pero con un sabor del caribe. El tipo de cancion me recuerda a canciones como "Oh, Melancolia".Los topicos de las canciones son de temas universales. Me gusto mucho la cancion "Fronteras". Lo recomiendo, es el Silvio de siempre en su continua evolucion artistica.
