Sentimiento Latino
Juan Diego Florez (tenor) / Fort Worth Symphony Orchestra / Miguel Harth Bedoya

[ Decca / CD ]

Release Date: Wednesday 12 April 2006

"Flórez goes to the heart with a voice of thrilling purity - despite those songs...Every tenor worth his salt seems to have a weakness for a set of what might be seen as vulgar songs. Domingo has his zarzuela, Alagna his recent foray into the repertoire of Luis Mariano and now Flórez his Latin folksongs. No insult intended, it's very enjoyable and pretty forgettable - but vocally dazzling."
(Editor's Choice Gramophone October 2006)

Peruvian tenor star Juan Diego Flórez sings from the heart on this glorious new album of irresistible popular songs from his native South America and Spain. The thrilling voice of one of today's most exciting young opera stars in the romantic ballads and popular songs of his homeland including Granada, Júrame and La Fleur de Canela

Symphonic orchestral arrangements, songs with traditional Mariachi band and intimate moments with solo guitar. Includes colourful orchestral arrangements by Juan Diego Flórez himself (and he plays bongos on Fina estampa)
