Karim Baggili Quartet
Cuatro con Cuatro (Home Records, Belgium)
$17.99
Based mainly on the different Spanish traditional rhythms (Bulerias, Alegrias, rumba, and tango), the techniques of flamenco, and the sonorities of the Middle East through the Arabic lute (oud), Baggili performs with three exceptional musicians. Kathy Adam's cello strengthens the rhythmic aspect of the flamenco and brings sweetness to its lyrical side.The flute of Philippe Laloy brings the sound of jazz. Osvaldo Hernandez' percussions (cajon, darbouka, maracas, etc.) offer a rich tonal palette and South American rhythms.The compositions are original and often daring, lending a whole new dimension to the flamenco guitar without diluting its essential nature.

The record label says:
Today, he performs with three exceptional musicians in his new band "Karim Baggili Quartet".His group was born while meeting musicians of different horizons. Every instrument brought a new dimension and stamp to the existing pieces. The cello strengthens the rhythmic aspect of the flamenco and brings sweetness to its lyrical side.The flute brings the sound of the jazz flamenco already used by numerous groups in Spain.
As for the different percussions (Cajon, darbouka, maracas, banked, etc.), they offer a rich palette in tones and South American rhythms.The compositions created since then are thought out and written specifically for these new optics. Although a new group, they hold promise for a very bright future.
This talented and passionate musician has appeared on stage for years playing solo or in duets with a repertoire composed of personal compositions. This is based mainly on: the different Spanish traditional rhythms (Bulerias, Alegrias, rumba, and tango), The techniques of the guitar flamenco, and the sonorities of the Middle East through the Arabic lute (oud).

Please note!
Most CDs have been
imported from Europe or Asia.
They are not all
shrink-wrapped, and I am not
going to con you by wrapping them
here just to make you think they
have been sterilized in America.
We guarantee that the CDs and the
contents are all brand new and in
perfect condition. Whenever I
can, I use recycled shipping
materials. They may not look as
pretty on the outside, but they save
money and keep the trash dumps a
little bit emptier.
