Good CD, Some Strong Songs.......2005-04-22

I have been following Lucybell for an online magazine, and saw them in concert last year. I can say they are great musicians but also they are pretty dark. That's why I disagree with a few reviewers here: tracks like Ojos del Silencio actually enhance the CD and their lives shows, because it gives the audience a break to catch their breath and changes the pace, as well as touches the heart. What do I think about the future of Lucybell? Lots of upside - they could go down as a type of Latin American U2 if they continue to innovate and do not produce too many dark songs. Tough to say. In concert, they can come off as being too powerful, which is tough on the ears.

Excellente album.......2005-04-17

Este es un album muy bueno de lucybell,excepto las canciones que canta el baterista.
la voz de Claudio Valenzuela es lo que hace a Lucybell.

Fabulous, except..........2005-03-28

Why did they let another band member sing on several tracks?

Claudio's voice is one of the things that defines LUCYBELL. The few tracks in which he does not sing sound pretty awful, which is not like LUCYBELL.

All the other LUCYBELL albums are five stars, this one, in addition to the few lousy tunes, contains a few more throw-ons.

Now, for the good,

"Salvame la Vida," "Piedad," and "Invierno Verde," are among the band's best tunes, these will be among their classics. Also, "Golpes," and "Hoy Sone," are great tunes.

LUCYBELL is my favorite band, their music will appeal to fans of Caifanes/Jaguares, Soda Stereo, and Moenia. The lyrics tend to be abstract, dark, and profound. The music has a spacey, goth feel to it.

This is a must have for all LUCYBELL fans. If you have never heard them, I reccomend starting with PECES, VIAJAR, SESION FUTURA or AMANECE.

Lucybell keeps getting better and better.......2005-02-14

I've always been a fan of lucybell, They're original. After hearing their song Salvame la vida I knew I had to buy this album. Sure enough the whole thing is great. My personal favorites are Salvame la Vida, Mi Propia Cruz, Hoy Sone, Esperanza, Angel, Ojos del Silencio. I DJ on a community radio station and do the Spanish rock shows. My listeners never get tired of listening to Lucybell.

Uno de los mejores grupos hoy en dia.......2005-01-28

Hace unos años, mientras escuchaba la radio en Tijuana, me tomo por sorpresa una voz diferente y una cancion super sensual...sonaba en la radio CUANDO RESPIRO EN TU BOCA...quede enamorada, y desde entonces soy fan de Lucybell.

Aunque en mi opinion este disco no es tan bueno como los anteriores, es un disco muy bien hecho.Hoy por hoy es uno de los grupos mas inovadores que ha salido de Latinoamerica...tienen un sonido muy particular, la musica y la letra te llega, te consume, asi como Soda Stereo en los viejos tiempos...Recomendado para gente que aprecia el rock bien hecho...y en vivo....uff...sensacional.

Good exposition of period practices.......1999-09-13

I enjoy this recording very much as a second perspective on Heinrich Schütz. It is well done, expressive, and it captures the essence of the style period quite well. the best example is the chorus "Die mit Tränen". For me it boils down to what you want when listening to Schütz. If you want a good exposition of the style period, you would be hard pressed to do better. If you prefer something that is performed as an act of worship in a German speaking Lutheran church (as I usually do), you might be happier with Mauersberger and the Dresden Kreuzchor. This is why I consider it a good second perspective without taking anything away from the Kreuzchor.

Contrary to Gramophone, Concerte aren't disappointing!.......1999-02-20

The excerpt from the Gramophone review reprinted by Amazon, curiously, omitted the middle portion of the text, making the whole message unintelligible. What Gramophone was saying is this: the qualities exhibited by Collegium Vocale in their singing of Chormusik, such as their perfect choral blend and the quickness of response to the difficult tempo changes, were so spectacular, that the impact of the more intimate Geistliche Concerte (for solo voices) was less by comparison. Gramophone also seemed to imply that Chormusik was perhaps more advanced stylistically, while Concerte fell squarely within the Monteverdian 17th-century baroque tradition. Such comparisons may be highly misleading, especially when taken out of context. The less knowledgeable public may only see the word "disappointing" (which referred to the relative value of the compositions) and not see the words "superbly sung," and thus conclude that the solo performances were somehow inadequate. Nothing could be further from the truth. Both, the chorus and the soloists, perform at their highest level, making the most out of the musical material in front of them. The only sensible conclusion from the above-mentioned Gramophone review is that, if the disparate emotional impact of Chormusik versus Geistliche Concerte is truly felt, Herreweghe may have made a mistake putting them indiscriminately on one CD instead of issuing two separate discs. I don't see why that is such a big deal. This is one of the best recordings of Schutz I have ever heard. "O susser, o freundlicher," in particular, is spell-binding.

remarkable.......2004-11-11

I heard (with delight) passages from this album on John Shafer's daily radio show "New Sounds" (via www.wnyc.com) yesterday; -- glad to see the CD's available. Dresher remains a significant presence among composer/musicians of our time: his work is at once strong, deep, satisfying, complex, highly innovative, and (as noted here) enjoyable and fresh. [Paul's in NYC so as to appear this week in a Carnegie Hall concert series curated by John Adams.] The relationship between this work's sampled sounds & John Cage's "prepared piano" is best explicated by Dresher himself (as I belive he does in liner notes).

Looking forward to exploring this more fully in coming days.

Early solo works........2006-03-04

"Solo Works-- The Lumina Recordings" collects three LPs recorded by Ned Rothenberg of primarily solo recordings from the early 1980s, digitally remastered and if I'm not mistaken made available for the first time of CD. Rothenberg doesn't quite have the name recognition that a number of other downtown performers have gained and being a reed player seems to put everyone on that scene pretty much in the shadow of John Zorn, but these recently reissued recordings offer an opportunity to evaluate Rothenberg's early works and consider him as a distinct artist.

Rothenberg's first LP of solo material, "Trials of Argo", was recorded in 1980 and 1981 and consists of two extended performances. It is probably the least satisfying of the material on this set. By his own admission in the liner notes, he wasn't quite sure of what he was doing in this environment and particularly on the title track, it shows. "Trials of Argo" is an alto sax feature with a number of overdubbed woodwind instruments in the mix. It opens with chirping and breathy sounds and eventually builds into a fractured rhythmic figure that turns over to more concrete lines. The problem, however, is that the focus of the piece is lost in the overdubs, and before it settles back into its original sound, it ends up being pretty washed out. The end finds Rothenberg frantically blowing over a drone and the playing is fine enough that it makes up for what it took to get there, but the piece as a whole fails. "Continuo After the Inuit" fares a bit better-- it builds from a low droning note on alto occasionally punctuated by an upper register excursion-- building in intensity and volume with the upper register performance taking hold over the droning. It has a nice sound and one could imagine it would have developed nicely over time live.

A significant leap forward is the material from "Portal"-- recorded in 1982 and 1983, the three tracks show Rothenberg coming moreso to terms with constructing a solo performance. "Portal" is similar in form to 'Continuo' with the same drone/upper register format swapping, but performed on bass clarinet and much better realized. "Caenis" finds Rothenberg performing on a soprano double ocarina (a sort of box-shaped wooden flute)-- he uses the polyphonic nature of the instrument to construct two coplimentary lines that starts off gently and picks up over time-- it ends up being one of the more intriguing and satisfying pieces on the entire collection. "Polysemy" finds Rothenberg performing on alto sax and drum kit with Gerry Hemingway joining on a steel drum. This piece is built around rhythmic figures by and large, with all three instruments providing by and large a rhythmic rather than a melodic component. The performance itself ends up being quite engaging, with Rothenberg's simple lines intertwining around each other.

It is on the final LP included in this collection-- "Trespass"-- however that Rothenberg really hits his stride. Consisting of seven briefer solo performances (rather than the extended works of the previous records), it benefits from the economy of the pieces-- Rothenberg makes more succinct statements around individual ideas and rather than attempting to make extended ideas come forth. This allows for the record to have more of the notion of tracks that excite you-- "Caeneus" finds Rothenberg digging deeply into blues tradition before surrendering to overtones and his circular lines, the title track finds him exploring descending lines using overtones to shift between them, and "Slapstick", probably the real standout of the record, features a fantastic, swinging bass clarinet line with Rothenberg showing how agile and versatile both he and the instrument is. The onlyu really extended cut, "Kakeai", is an alto sax duet between Rothenberg and John Zorn and proves to be stunning. Zorn's presence adds a frantic energy to the piece that Rothenberg picks up on and the 11 minute+ workout turns out to be the most energetic and exploratory cut on the record with extended register and technique rising and falling. Rothenberg seems inclined to occasionally maintain a more rhythmic figure while letting Zorn cut loose, but the two respond to each other nicely and the performance is fantastic throughout.

This compilation also includes three unreleased tracks recorded significantly later that feature more of an electronic bent. "Wrestling with Water", from 1991 and performed on processed bass clarinet, is a near-ambient piece, with the horn rising above a swirl. Structurally, it's actually quite siilar to the earlier material, but it works significantly better. "Funhouse" (presented in two tracks), from 1998, features live processing by David Weinstein and again finds Rothenberg on bass clarinet, is probably the best performance on the set. Drifting in and out of ambient and his usual pallette, Rothenberg is able to construct a piece that demands attention and is stunningly well performed-- it's easy to see where his progress has brought him.

This set has been remastered-- truthfully I never had the original recordings, but the sound is clear and distinct with no residual traces of the analog transfer and the release includes an essay by Rothenberg about the history of these recordings that makes for a nice read.

All in all, "The Lumina Recordings" is a fine set-- Rothenberg had a long way to develop as a solo performer and it shows, but the opportunity to see his work so early is well worth investigation.
