La conexión entre música e imágenes para enriquecer los sonidos no es nueva, estos días, algunas veces, las imágenes pueden ser mucho mejores que la música, artistas con nada nuevo en sus almas, entonces todas las apuestas están en el campo visual , pero, los verdaderos artistas pueden construir un puente con su creatividad como músicos, y las imágines pueden ser estupendas como la música entregada, este es el caso con "La voz más allá" de Roxana Amed (Sony / RCA Victor, 2009).
"La voz más allá" (Sony / RCA Victor, 2009) no es un descuidado DVD con dos o tres canciones de Roxana Amed, con los oyentes, y espectadores, como objetivos monetarios, tenemos aquí una brillante, excelente producción, funcionando como un diario personal sobre la carrera de Roxana Amed.
Desde su primer álbum, "Limbo" (EMI, 2004) , el comienzo de una bella amistad musical con el talentoso Pedro Aznar (productor, arreglador, y apoyo celestial, en sus dos primeras grabaciones solistas), y canciones como "Amelia" de Joni Mitchell, ahora un clásico en el repertorio de Roxana Amed, si, podemos hablar de "clásicos" en la carrera de esta joven artista, porque sólo músicos creativos y dotados pueden conseguir semejante objetivo.
A la bella, y triste balada "Lonely people", o Adrián Iaies uniendo fuerzas en la canción, y título del segundo álbum de Roxana Amed, "Entremundos" (S-Music, 2006).
Y regresando al modo en que este DVD fue realizado, añadiendo versiones originales y en vivo, como aquella junto a León Gieco, un maravilloso dúo en la canción de Tom Waits "Georgia Lee", o "Time after time", de Cyndi Lauper, con la mágica voz invitada de Sandra Mihanovich.
También Roxana Amed en voz y guitarras, composiciones (ella es una gran compositora), y su banda habitual: Claudio "Coki" Iuliano (guitarras), Sebastián Espósito (guitarras), Fernando Galimany (contrabajo), Mario Gusso (percusión), refrescando material de las grabaciones de Roxana Amed, mostrando una profunda conexión e intercambio de ideas.
Hay suficiente espacio y buen gusto para una amorosa versión de "Blue" de Joni Mitchell, nuevamente con el sutil arte de Adrián Iaies en el piano, y una vibrante version a capella de "Bridge over trouble waters".
Aún cuando encontrarán a Roxana Amed hablando en el DVD, breves y sabias palabras sobre su carrera, el proceso para crear música, su vida diaria, cons sus altas y bajas, "La voz más allá" (Sony / RCA Victor, 2009), como ella dice, funciona como un diario, un diario musical que amaran leer, una y otra vez.
Roxana Amed - "La voz más allá" / "The voice beyond" (Sony / RCA Victor, 2009) - Contratapa / Back cover.
The connection between music and images to enrich the sounds isn't new, these days, sometimes, images can be much better than the music, artists with nothing new in their souls, then all the bets are on the visual field, but, the real artists can build a bridge with their creativity as musicians, and the images can be marvellous as the music delivered, this is the case with Roxana Amed's "The voice beyond" (Sony / RCA Victor, 2009).
"The voice beyond" (Sony / RCA Victor, 2009) isn't a careless DVD with two or three songs from Roxana Amed, with the listeners, and viewers, as monetary targets, we've got here a brilliant, excellent production, working as a personal diary about Roxana Amed's career.
From her first album, "Limbo" (EMI, 2004) , the beginning of a beautiful musical friendship with the talented Pedro Aznar (producer, arranger, and heavenly support in her two first solo recordings), and songs as Joni Mitchell's "Amelia", now a classic in Roxana Amed's repertoire, yes, we can talk about "classics" in the career of this young artist, because only really gifted and creative musicians can achieve such goal.
To the beautiful, and sad ballad "Lonely people", or Adrián Iaies joining forces in the song, and title from Roxana Amed second album, "Entremundos" (S-Music, 2006).
And, going back to the way this DVD was done, adding original and live sessions, as the one along with León Gieco, a wonderful duo in Tom Waits song "Georgia Lee", or Cyndi Lauper's "Time after time", with the magical guest voice from Sandra Mihanovich.
Also Roxana Amed on vocals and guitars, compositions (she's a great composer), and her regular band: Claudio "Coki" Iuliano (guitars), Sebastián Espósito (guitars), Fernando Galimany (acoustic bass), Mario Gusso (percussion), refreshing material from Roxana Amed albums, showing a deep connection and interchange of ideas.
There's enough space for a lovely version from Joni Mitchell's "Blue", again with the subtle art from Adrián Iaies on the piano, and a vibrant a capella version from "Bridge over trouble waters".
Even when you'll find Roxana Amed talking on the DVD, brief and wise words about her career, the process to create music, her everyday life, with ups and downs, "The voice beyond" (Sony / RCA Victor, 2009), as she says, works as a diary, a musical diary you'll love to read, and enjoy, over and over again.
