Antara - Door Of The Sun Andean Folk Music Vol 3

Review by Sandy Mesona

The album Door Of The Sun Andean Folk Music by Antara is a beautiful compilation of traditional Andean music that takes the listener on a journey through the rich cultural heritage of the region. The album features a variety of instruments, including the quena, charango, and panpipes, which are used to create a unique and authentic sound that captures the essence of Andean music.

The album opens with the title track, "Door of the Sun," which sets the tone for the rest of the album with its haunting melody and intricate instrumentation. The songs that follow are equally mesmerizing, each one showcasing the talent and skill of the musicians. From the upbeat rhythms of "El Condor Pasa" to the more contemplative "Carnavalito," the album offers a diverse range of sounds and moods.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "Alma Llanera," a Venezuelan folk song that has been given a new and beautiful arrangement by Antara. The song features stunning vocal harmonies and a beautiful interplay between the different instruments, creating a truly magical listening experience.

Summary by Sandy Mesona

Door Of The Sun Andean Folk Music is a must-have album for anyone interested in Andean music or world music in general. The musicianship on display is truly impressive, and the songs are both beautiful and engaging. Highly recommended!
