México Azul
The Album
With her deep, rich contralto Magos Herrera performs the music of the Golden Age of Mexican cinema (1930 – 1940’s) and translates it into this marvellous and exotic production which won her rave reviews by critics and public.
“Magos Herrera can sing the alphabet...and it would sound like a Grammy-award-winning masterpiece of epic proportions. Her deep, rich contralto takes over a song and gives it exotic depth. In her latest CD, “Mexico Azul,” Herrera takes the music of the Golden Age of Mexican cinema (1930-1940s) and translates it into something very special.”
“Herrera is without a doubt the best jazz singer out of Mexico, and with México Azul she is establishing herself among the best singers in jazz”
