Zusammenfassung:[Portuondo] needs no introduction: one of Cuba's great voices, the velvetvoiced diva finally reached a sizeable international audience via the Buena Vista Social Club. [Chucho Vald]és is a bandleader, pianist and composer who also occupies a significant place in Cuba's musical history. This is not the first time that the two have recorded together - Desafios, their heartbreak album from 2000 is still a marvel. But on this latest 12-song recording, the two stretch these old classics to their limits.
