 This
CD is indeed a product of recent times. Very little outstanding
is getting produced in our days! Contamination, music polyhedric
that in every aspect meets and confines with all different worlds
and different cultures - but most - bringing together musicians
deriving from different parts of the world. In this CD – as Jonathan
Besser declares himself – a mixture between his jewish musical
tradition (and therefore the Klezmer) and his new home New Zealand
, all based on the “sound” of Tango - strongly Latin, inevitably
and conflicting.
Only contrast brings out the best
in all. What does all this combine? The solid and outstanding
capacity of Besser as a composer, never leading his works into
the direction of stereotypes and commercial music. A very pleasant
disk to listen to and on the other side with very intense and
deep emotions.
A last annotation: the CD track
with the title “You Got Your Wish” and “A Bird Without Wings”
has been written as a “musical reaction” in regard to the 11th
of September (Jonathan Besser was born in New York) and are based
upon the two lyrics of the mystical poet Rumi, born in Afghanistan.
