Flor de Amor marks a change in direction for Omara Portuondo. Coproduced by Nick Gold and innovative young Brazilian Alecirc Siqueira, her second solo album for World Circuit reveals a more richly textured and subtle side to Omaras sound. On this album the Buena Vista Social Clubs leading lady is backed by a renowned A team of Cuban musicians who, combined with a selection of excellent Brazilian musicians, give the album its distinctive style.
