CD Hotlist, CD Review >>
-by Rick Anderson
There has been a steadily increasing interest in the brass band music of Romany (Gypsy) culture in recent years -- one indicator is the fact that when Sacha Baron Cohen wanted a version of "Born to Be Wild" for his hit film Borat, he turned to Fanfare Ciocarlia. That track is included here, along with 13 other equally frantic, funky and intoxicating tunes. The blend of Spanish, Eastern European, Middle Eastern and (I swear) Mariachi sonorities is wild and refreshing, and may be unlike anything you've ever heard. Every library should own this disc. 07/01/07 >> go there
