Vinyl LP pressing. Imagine walking down a quiet street in an historic Latin American city - it could be Havana, Cartagena, Buenos Aires or one of many other cities filled with colonial-era Spanish architecture. The haunting strains of a romantic melody waft under the moonlight, pulling you towards a dimly lit cafe. You step inside and see dusty walls lined with black and white photos of legendary singers of the past and faded concert posters. The jukebox is playing a romantic bolero from the 1950s. Suddenly you are transported to another era, a time of romance and poetry when Latin America was finding it's voice and wooing the world with it's enchanting songs. There's nothing that acts as a musical time machine more than the classic sounds of Mexican and Cuban boleros, Cuban sones and guajiras, Argentinian tangos, Puerto Rican trios or Venezuelan llaneras. These are the styles that have echoed across Latin America for generations, sung by legendary singers that connect listeners through a shared nostalgia for an earlier era. In this modern world, where popular music seems particularly disposable and temporary, we hope that this collection of exceptional vintage songs from Latin America reminds you that great music truly can be timeless.

A word from Angèle Dubeau...



I have never placed limits on my choice of repertoire, and for this project, I pushed my curiosity to the extreme, toward a world that was completely unknown to me. In my quest to discover the gems of modern music, I listened to many works written and revisited by composers of great talent.



When I began my research, video games quickly emerged as a logical avenue of exploration. I have always strived to interest young people in classical music because I feel it has the power to touch everyone. Seeing the passion of young people for video games, I wanted to understand the secrets of their success and to evaluate their musical value.



On my most recent recording, I approached movie music without consideration for the images and scenes that inspired it, and I took the same tack in reviewing the gold mine that is video game music. I have assembled here the works that spoke to me, giving no real thought to the adventures they accompany.



I immersed myself in the worlds that created these excerpts, and I conveyed my new conception to the musicians of La Pietà, going into great detail to bring forth all of their beauty and power. Above all, I wanted to avoid distorting them, and my intention has been to preserve the form that initially won over video game aficionados while at the same time breathing new life into them.



So it is with great pleasure that I invite you to dive into the fantastical world of video games with me.



Angèle Dubeau
