GloBeat Plays Boleros

The azaleas are blooming, and, in spite of my age and COVID isolation, I feel like falling in love. The best I could do to mitigate the desire was to compile an episode of Boleros from around the world.

Dance to the music of #MariaCreuza #SoledadBravo #FrenchLatino #TrioLosPanchos #AmiraMedujanin #AndreaBocelli #Fancy #JulioIglesias #LêQuyên #DouglasFelis #OmaraPortuando #IbrahimFerrer #ChiaraCivello #GilbertoGil #NicolaStajic #KristinaBijelic #RenaVlahopoulou and much more.

#NatachaAtlasThis compilation includes some new voices like the French/Swiss
Jazz singer Tatiana, the wonderful Venezuelan, born in Margarita Island, Nellaand the lovely Jannat, from Morocco. A surprise is the great Sevdha singer from Bosnia Amira Medunjanin, singing in English a lovely ballad.

The last track is by the great British Film Music composer Jocelyn Pook,
it is a moving “Ave Maria”. It was commissioned by the British/Bengali choreographer Akran Khan for his multimedia dance project “Desh”,
the singer is the British/Egyptian vocalist Natacha Atlas.
I think it is a perfect non-denominational way to wish
you all a wonderful Easter, Passover and very soon Ramadan
