Since exploding on to the scene in 1990 with his classic NOUVEAU FLAMENCO, Ottmar Liebert has continually redefined the face of flamenco music, establishing himself as one of the genre's top draws. With THE SANTA FE SESSIONS, Liebert takes a few of his bigger hits back to the drawing board, thus giving them a new updated sound - a sort of acoustic "remix." The idea was to capture the essence of his live shows, where Liebert tends to improvise upon and alter his tunes to fit the current mood. Songs like "Barcelona Nights," "Snakecharmer" and "Havana Club" all benefit from added horn sections, guitar arrangements and an elongated running time. Also included are two new tracks: "Sao Pablo" and "Song for Pablo."
