Three accordions and the double
bass - and I just loved the presence of the double bass in this
ensemble, it adds that extra 'touch' to the accordions with its
delicate background support and warm tone color.
What comes as a real refreshment
is that this is an acoustic recording, no electrical devices were
used whatsoever. The studio and the recording equipment were specially
designed for optimal acoustic sound via a "liner transient response"
recording technique.
As its title implies, this recording
contains some of the most popular musette tunes and valses as
well as some tangos, sambas, etc. I especially liked the tangos
and sambas performed on the straight tuning registers. The ensemble
as a unit is very well balanced and their performance is technically
sound, with a lot of heartfelt emotion.
It's easy listening, classy entertainment.
