El Alma Al Aire is the latest product from Spanish singer / composer Alejandro Sanz. His previous album Más was renowned worldwide and it was a difficult task to match. The album El Alma Al Aire contains a solid collection of sensitive ballads, and is therefore more introverted than Más. But this new album also contains the ingredients of Sanz: warm music and intensely poetic language. In any
… case, Sanz is clearly not a one day fly: we'll keep hearing from him! Sanz, born in Southern Spain in 1968, started playing the guitar at the age of seven and wrote his own compositions from the age of ten. After a start to the profession of shoemaker, he eventually opted for music. His first album, Viviendo De Prisa, was released in 1991. Each subsequent album increased Sanz 'popularity, and Más broke all records. It brought him great international fame in Europe, Latin America and the United States. In addition to national awards, Sanz was named best selling Spanish artist at the 1999 World Music Awards and for Más he received the 'Platinum Europe Award'. (SvdP)more
