Self-described 'Trailblazers' in Mexican music, mixed quintet Voz en Punto, winners of international awards for their versatility and ability to interpret music from the cultures of many countries, had to start somewhere, and 'Mexico A Capella' is it, their first commercial recording. 'Mexico' represents the impassioned fusion of two of the group's great loves: Mexico and choral singing. The CD topped as #1 seller on the Mexican classical charts, and 4 of the CD's singles, 'Tilingolingo,' 'Male Betulia,' 'Jucheti Consuelito' and the Swingles-influenced 'El Rascapatate' won the 2nd Tribune of Mexican Music and were chosen to represent Mexico in the 10th Tribune of Latin-American and Caribbean music. 15 songs, all in Spanish, favorites besides the 4 singles are the manic 'Cucurumbe,' the romantic 'Besame Mucho,' the crazed, Swinglish 'Que Rico Mambo,' the rhythmic gem 'Tete,' and the jazzy 'Que Bonita Es Mi Tierra.' 'Mexico' created an a cappella sensation in Mexico, and it's easy to hear why. Great arrangements, hot, spirited vocals, fine song selection, dynamic live performances-it adds up to the kind of stardom that changes the popular culture of a nation!
