Description

Caliente! the Zucker & Caliendo Duo for flute and guitar makes a world musicimpact with this exciting new hot, summer 2004 release. Christopher Caliendo's music is incredibly exciting and this virtuostic flute and guitar music will have you up and dancing in no time!!

"Caliente!-Laurel Zucker & Christopher Caliendo-World Music for Flute and Guitar is everything it advertises to be. Laurel Zucker is an amazing flutist that has made a beautiful transition to an entirely unknown realm. Known as classical musician (26 CDs on Cantilena Records), she has successfully added another feather to her cap with this successful outing of world-jazz-classical-instrumental recordings. Christopher Caliendo is one fantastic guitar player as well; he is simply masterful and as fluid as humanly possible on this recording. You can tell Caliendo has worked hard at his craft and taken the example of greats like Segovia, Reinhardt and Pass and put it to work through his style and approach. The man is also a great composer; he is the proud author of over 500 classical world music compositions! A marvelous accomplishment by anyone's standards surely. " www.zongoo.com June 2004


"The CD sleeve offers biographical information on each artist and a rundown of each track explaining the rich history behind each composition. It all provides for the complete entertainment experience-listening, relaxation and literary, indeed three factors that can be most gratifying when you are trying to wind down and forget the stresses of everyday life." Evolvingartist.com June 2004


"I listened to this CD several times and I would highly recommend the same process if you decide to add this to your collection. The use of the flute is most fascinating when combined with the classical and flamenco guitar. These are colorful and rich musical tapestries woven by two of the best musicians in the world. The cover artwork is interesting as well; the mountains behind the flamenco dancer are on fire, validating the title Caliente! Which means to warm up and the animated woman looks as though she is dancing on the stars and stripes. Whatever your interpretation is, I am sure it will fit the musical landscape found inside the CD case. Viva! Zucker and Caliendo, you should hold your heads high for this marvelous musical accomplishment." dmusic.com June 2004

FOUR STAR REVIEW!
By Jim Carnes -- Sacramento Bee Arts Critic 2004
"Sacramento flutist Laurel Zucker has raised the temperature with "Caliente!" The colorful CD reflects Zucker's apparent yen to break away from traditional music for her instrument by branching into something fresh and jazzy. Performed with Los Angeles guitarist Christopher Caliendo, also the composer of the CD's 13 pieces, "Caliente!" is passionately played and replete with complex rhythm patterns, elegant melodies and evocative couplings of the guitar and flute.

As Zucker, a member of the music faculty at California State University, Sacramento, has previously expressed, "guitar and flute are a natural combination because there are no balance issues." Indeed, no such problems arise in these varied and moody selections that show off Zucker and Caliendo's obviously well-developed technique and flexibility. The CD's title track sparkles. "Lamento" is tearful. "Amor perdido" wrenches the heart. And "Coraggio" tangoes its listener to another clime."
