CD Review: Natacha Atlas & the Marzeeka Ensemble Ana Hina

2008-09-08 16:19:50 by delarue in Lucid Culture
 
...Fairuz . Atlas sweet, high soprano doesnt have Fairuz gravitas or drama. Instead, she imbues the songs with a remarkable subtlety and sensitivity: shes arrived, no doubt about it. Rather than using a big string orchestra as would typically back Fairuz and her contemporaries, Atlas and producer/pianist Harvey Brough utilize a smaller acoustic...

2008-08-18 12:53:00 by Con in A World of Music
...Fairuz and Abdel Halim Hafez sit alongside well-judged original compositions (usually stripped back, no risk of over-ambition spoiling the mood). A smouldering reprise of Mish Maoul's Hayati Inta (complete with a nod to Booker T and the MGs) sums up the intimate but arresting mood, and on La Vida Callada (The Unspoken Life), Atlas is joined...

2008-11-12 23:00:41 by delarue in Lucid Culture
 
...Fairuz , whos clearly the main influence on Ana Hina. Onstage, Atlas displays considerably more lower register, and more bite, than she does in the studio, several times going into long melismatic passages that were very warmly received. They also ran through a bouncy noir cabaret number as well as a long, well over ten-minute, absolutely...
