Rumba de la Isla

Rumba de la Isla

2013 album from the Grammy-nominated Latin Jazz musician. Rumba de la Isla is an album of songs once interpreted by Camar¢n de la Isla, the legendary Flamenco icon. Mart¡nez puts his own personal take on classic songs by Camar¢n in this unique tribute to the greatest Flamenco artist of all time. Produced by Fernando Trueba and Nat Chediak, Rumba de la Isla celebrates the convergence of Cuban and Flamenco rumbas. From the percussive and daring first track, 'Que a m¡ me vi¢ de nacer' to the last track, 'Homenaje a Camar¢n,' written by Mart¡nez, the album boasts originality as it moves away from well-trodden paths and provides the most creative merge of Cuban and Flamenco music.
