Volver (Patricia Moreno) [DIGITAL DOWNLOAD]

The Audiophile Society

$18.98 USD

Once in a great while, a truly iconic artist emerges — not a commercial fabrication, not a product of marketing, but a rare, genuine voice of deep artistry and technical brilliance.

Patricia Moreno is one of those artists.

With the release of Volver, Moreno stakes her place among the greatest Latin jazz singers of our time. In the tradition of the legendary Baroque coloratura virtuosos, she brings that same fearless agility, precision, and imagination to the world of Latin jazz — a realm where very few voices have ever reached such heights.

Her voice and technique exist on another level entirely.

On this album, Moreno reimagines classical Latin repertoire — including Amalia, Carlos Gardel’s Volver and El día que me quieras, and newly composed Chorinhos — transforming them through breathtaking scatting, improvisation, and vocal invention. Each song becomes a living canvas where tradition and spontaneity collide.

Joined by her father Arnoldo Moreno and guitarist/arranger Ignacio “Nacho” Giovanetti, the trio crafts arrangements of remarkable elegance and rhythmic complexity. The guitars shimmer with intimacy and fire, forming the perfect foundation for Patricia’s fearless explorations.

Moreno reflects on the experience:

“I’ve always loved using my voice as an instrument — shaping melodic lines, coloring textures, playing with phrasing and agility, exploring my range, diving deep into rhythm and tone. But these Chorinhos pushed me further than anything I’ve sung before: they are rhythmically intricate, harmonically rich, and technically highly demanding. They took me to new places in my scatting and improvisation, where instinct, breath, and pure joy take over — and the music becomes something truly alive.”

Recorded in Vienna, Austria at 192kHz/24-bit using an all-ribbon microphone chain and mixed in New York City by David Chesky at The Audiophile Society in his acclaimed Classical 3D Mega-Dimensional Sound, Volver offers an extraordinary sonic experience. The transparency of Moreno’s voice, the realism of the guitars, and the natural acoustic space create an intimacy rarely captured on record.

Beyond the Chorinhos, the album journeys across Latin America:

Three Venezuelan traditional songs (Amalia, Dama Antañona, Crepúsculo Coriano) reconnect Moreno with her roots
Two immortal tangos by Carlos Gardel (Volver, El día que me quieras)
A soulful Uruguayan Candombe (Baile del Candombe)

Each piece reveals a different emotional world — folkloric, lyrical, dramatic, and deeply personal.

For audiophiles and classical music aficionados alike, this recording is an absolute must-have. Whether you're seeking the ultimate system test for your sound equipment or simply yearning to experience an ultimate Strauss sound in its full glory, this album promises an unforgettable musical journey.
