CD Reviews

A Pre-Columbian Banquet
Dr. Warlphoost | Fullerton, CA | 01/18/2004
(4 out of 5 stars)

"This CD, recorded in Mexico, is a fairly adept attempt to recreate the music of the prehispanic indigenous people of Mexico. The instruments used are all quite authentic, with extensive liner notes on them. There were no notes on the actual recording or performers, so one is left to assume that all instruments and compositions are by Mr. Reyes. The music itself is at times haunting, airy, dark and light; one piece with vocals. This CD left me hungering for more, if there is more. The only shortcoming is the briefness of the recording; at 37 minutes I was hoping for more. I believe it was originally released on LP, which would explain the length. Viva La Raza!"
Really Captures the Mayan Feeling
avgvstvs | Omaha NE | 12/16/2006
(5 out of 5 stars)

"I picked this disc up in one of the many mom'n pop shops when I visited the Yucatan in 2004. Several of the cuts on this disc are used at XCARET park when they perform their recreation of the Mayan ballgame, albeit at different tempos. This disc truly captures the spirit of Mayan music, I had the fantastic opportunity to visit both Chichen Itza and a Mayan village, and this music not only captures the feeling of being in the Jungle, but it takes you back to a much simpler time. It's very easy to relax to. It does seem short, but the quality of the recording is so superb for what you get."
