Greatest MP3 Selection For Ernesto Lecuona

Ultimate Collection

More than 140 minutes of historic recordings from the man dubbed by many “the Cuban Gershwin”! Ernesto Lecuona is indeed the greatest composer Cuba has ever produced; his works ranged from light classical to pop songs like Siboney and Malaguena that were covered repeatedly by jazz and swing bands, and this 63-track collection-boasting historic, remastered performances from 1927, 1928 and 1954, with some unreleased material-is the most comprehensive collection available. This collection includes Ernesto Lecuona’s complete 1954 recordings plus a series of 78s made in 1927-28. Ten of the recordings were previously unreleased. This is a lot of lightweight Cuban piano music to deal with at once, but it’s definitely worth doing. Lecuona’s music, which is having a major revival, may not be important. But it’s consistently charming and entertaining. The 78s, which sound surprisingly good, reveal even more of a virtuoso than do the later recordings, but throughout we hear playing that expresses the spirit of the music extremely well. And yes, the famous Malagueña is here, sounding very sexy. –Leslie Gerber
