Music of Latin American Masters: Revueltas, Villa-Lobos, Ginastera, Chávez, Orbón, Estévez
Unfortunately I cannot say that I enjoyed this Dorian Recordings CD box. I have listened to it in full twice, and some tracks several times to force me to find something to relate to. In most cases I succeeded, but regardless, that is far for me to enjoy.
There is a definite similarity in the pieces, which I failed to discriminate clearly.
For someone who is not familiar with Latin American music, I would suggest it. It is possible that the mystical tropical sounds enrobe the listener. For those that know it, perhaps a more precise selection would be better.
