FLOR NOCTURNA

MARTA TOPFEROVA
FLOR NOCTURNA (2006)
256-320 KBPS

Marta is from the Czech Republic, by way of Seattle, and has called NYC home for about a decade. She writes and sings in Spanish, with spare acoustic instrumentation that includes cello, flute, viola, marimba, the wonderful Jenny Scheinman on violin - and beautifully accompanies herself on quatro, the small, four string Spanish guitar. Her songs are elegant, spellbinding affairs of longing and romance.
Throughout the album she conveys a deep passion and resonance with her material. Her voice and persona are truly beautiful.
