Medium Terzett - Sing La Bamba Tanz La Bamba

Review by Jin Lu

Medium Terzett's album Sing La Bamba Tanz La Bamba is a delightful collection of traditional German folk songs infused with Latin American rhythms. The trio's harmonies are tight and their musicianship is impressive, with accordion, guitar, and percussion creating a lively and danceable sound. The album opens with the title track, a catchy and energetic rendition of the famous Mexican folk song "La Bamba," which sets the tone for the rest of the album. Standout tracks include "Kalinka," a Russian folk song given a salsa twist, and "Hava Nagila," a Jewish wedding song that becomes a lively party anthem. The album closes with "Auf Wiedersehn," a sentimental ballad that showcases the trio's vocal range and emotional depth. Sing La Bamba Tanz La Bamba is a fun and refreshing take on traditional folk music, perfect for anyone who loves to dance and sing along.
