Started around 1990, Radio Tarifa is a Spanish ensemble that has come into its own as a purveyor of pan-Mediterranean musical styles from across time. With a penchant for traditional gypsy pieces from Persia, North Africa, and their homeland, Radio Tarifa provides musical proof of the continuity of gypsy music throughout the world (a fact explicated in the film Latcho Drom with equal effectiveness). For their second release, Temporal, the ensemble concentrates on traditional material from Iberia, with pieces culled from Galician, Andalucian, Castilian, and Flamenco culture. Reflecting the distinctly Middle Eastern influence -- via Moorish culture -- in Spanish music, many of the cuts here feature such Persian, Arabic, and North African instruments, including the tar lute, ney flute, and derbouka clay drum. The group also use Greek and Indian instruments, not to mention both medieval and modern devices like the crumhorn wind instrument, organ, and electric bass. This rich mix is topped off by some excellent vocal performances. Another fine title in the group's small but stellar catalog. |
Tarifa is a town of Spain.Is the one closer to North Africa(about 14 KM),and is placed in the Gibraltar Strait, where the waters from the Mediterranean Sea and the Atlantic blends.
Is a place where the wind blows so strong ,that almost drives you crazy.From the other side of the strait comes the sounds of the speakers from the morning prayers of Maroccos and the sounds of Africa and the arab culture.
Tarifa is a blend of cultures,where Europe blends with Africa and the music from the Andalucia blends with the mourish chants.
This is a cd who reflects the influences that each culture have on each other.Hope you enjoy it.More one of the World Music series.
