Arroyo Engler Schläppi Tres Mil Uno - Cw160016-2 - Jazz - by Avi Music

Following their first album Tangomoods , which was hailed by the media as one of the genre’s “most captivating records of the year”, and a “sonorous, intimate outing” showcasing “outstanding musical talent”, the new album is further proof of the trio’s unique interpretation of their art, honed through many years of playing on stage. The album Tres Mil Uno sees Puerta Sur transcending boundaries with gusto. South America is even more present: beautiful, rarely played songs from Argentina sit alongside tracks steeped in musical tradition from other parts of South America and Europe. Menos es Mas, music normally characterized by lush orchestral landscapes, has been stripped to its bare essence. This new delicate, yet full-sounding approach does away with superfluous ornamentation, instead relying on musicality, virtuosity, taste and bold original arrangements to enchant the listener. Exciting, intensive and as light as a feather – world music like it has never been played before. Virtually none of the tracks follow the rules of their genres and nothing is conventionally arranged. It has not been done by accident. On this second album, it is clear that the trio have found their own language and taken the time to look into the very heart and soul of their music.
