Emilio Teubal - Musica Para Un Dragon Dormido (2013)

The intellect of the Argentine musician Emilio Teubal is not the only facet of his musical personality to enjoy on his fine album Música Para Un Dragón Dormido (Music for a sleeping dragon). Mr. Teubal is also a fine storyteller with an unbridled imagination and playfulness that is reminiscent of his legendary countryman, the writer Jorge Luis Borges. Like the master littérateur, Mr. Teubal delves into the world of magical realism, which seems to be a universe where he spends much of his time as a composer of music. This gives his compositions great character, a sense of mystery and colourful playfulness that is rare in music today.
