"... passion, sensuality and musical intelligence ... a dazzling performer with a world-class voice ..."
- The Sunday Times
"The best musical surprises often come from the most unexpected places ... here’s a hugely engaging disc of South American song from a group based in Scotland ... Martínez’s lyrics are superb; these are songs of longing, nostalgia and regret. But they’re always projected via musical settings of incredible vitality and wit ... hers is such an expressive, compelling voice, especially so when she interrupts her cantilena to speak directly to the listener ... backings, by the versatile Edinburgh-based Mr McFall’s Chamber, are pungent and zesty, with extra impact provided by bandoneon virtuoso Victor Villena. A glorious, loveable disc."
- The Arts Desk
Chilean singer Valentina Montoya Martínez ventures into the world of tango with La Pasionaria, recorded with acclaimed Scottish chamber ensemble Mr McFall’s Chamber. Women are at the heart of this programme: La Pasionaria was the nickname of Dolores Ibárruri, a Basque Communist leader during the Spanish Civil War. Likewise both engaged and passionate, the songs brought together here, including Martínez’s deeply personal odes to her late mother and to the political activist Sola Sierra, pay tribute to the private and public live of women across Spain and Latin America.
