Newly added to our calming rotation is Latin Dreamland from Putumayo Kids. Ten calming lullabies by artists from various Latin American countries (Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, Venezuela, Mexico and Peru).
Things I loved about this album ::
1) Latin American inspired lullabies. Need I say more?
2) Each song has a different artist, so there’s a great representation of music styles and influences from different countries.
3) Each song has a page in the booklet of information that is included with the CD that gives you a translation of a small portion of the song so you can know what it’s about. Some songs also have a little history/background info included in the info.
4) Each song page in the information booklet also provides some info about the artist who sings the song.
Okay, there was obviously a lot I liked about this album, but don’t just take my word for it. Visit the Latin Dreamland page on the Putumayo Kids website to take a listen yourself and find your favorite lullaby. (P.S. My favorite was song#10 and Marta Gomez’s lullaby rendition of “Cielito Lindo“)
