Description
Music is a human thing, a warm thing, something that touches the heart."" That is the view of the world-famous Hungarian Béla Mavrák.This quotation was the result of his visit to a tribe in Papua New Guinea, who received him as their first white visitor and adorned his farewell aria with unusual Aborigine vocals. His voice is heard and loved all over the globe. No lesser a personage than Lord Yehudi Menuhin accompanied the star tenor. It was from him that Mavrák adopted the humility of a great star which has gained him the worldwide affection of his fans, although since 2006 his international stage performances have become a little more ostentatious. Star violinist André Rieu enlisted Béla Mavrák to join his ensemble and made him known to an audience of millions in all the continents of the earth. Now, with ""Un Soplo en el Aire"" Mavrák has fulfilled a long-held dream in between his world tours with the great violinist Rieu from Maastricht. This album is remarkable for its honesty and for the melancholy moments which Béla Mavrák describes like this: ""The original music of Cuba combined with gentle references to modern western pop music and music from home country, supported by Indian tablas, Turkish drums and electric guitars in Latino sound have given the clics and evergreens of this CD a very special, unmistakable character. With no other song on the CD was I asked quite so often why I had chosen to record a new version of it: the immortal clic 'Lili Marleen'. The answer is simple and it stands for the universal, unbounded power of music. Whenever this song was played over the loudspeakers on the warfronts of World War Two, the gunfire stopped and there was silence - on both sides.... And that is why I still believe in the power and magic of music!
