Felix Lajko and Ensemble '7'

"My music is based on the delicacy and colourfulness of my instrument. I do not play any new types of musical genre, I only follow my own path and improvise and write music. I cannot see differences between musical styles and ways, so I play folk-, classical-, rock-, blues-, and improvisational music. I have written music to several theatre plays and films for Yugoslavian and Hungarian directors. I wrote a musical piece for the festival commemorating the Sarajevo Cultural Olympics." Felix Lajko

(SICD717)

Chino Rodriguez y la Consagracion canta Victor Rodriguez 'Si Te Vas Mi China'

Classic salsa music CD.
"..Si Te Vas Mi China, That was a real strong project, I rehearsed the band for about a year straight, every day, every day till we went to the studio, because this time Larry Harlow produced it by his lonesome, and I wanted to make sure we recorded this with no problems at all. But I think musically it shows how the musicianship grew and the experience of playing every day stood out. Also working with Jon Fausty and Willie Colon dropping by and just having all of the guys in the business at that time come by and just hang out was the most greatest thing for a guy who not only was part of the business but was still very much a fan...'
