"The guitar was making fun of me, across the room,
wondering aloud how I could have forgotten the habit of stroking, and made her create worlds that only I could visit.
Tired of her silent mockery, I forced myself to take her in my hands, and I found capricious notes that first fought between them, shouting, arguing, but ended up as the old friends who really are in peaceful conversation. "
“La guitarra se burlaba de mí, al otro lado de la habitación, preguntándose en voz alta cómo era posible que hubiera olvidado la costumbre de acariciarla, y de hacerla crear mundos para que sólo yo los visitara.
Harto de su silenciosa burla, me obligué a tomarla entre mis manos, y fui encontrando caprichosas notas que primero peleaban entre ellas, se gritaban, discutían, pero acabaron como las viejas amigas que son, en pacífica conversación.”

New releases by Manoel Macía always are a sure thing - 100% certainty that you'll get the best of the best symphonic rock with lots of lush guitar and synth arrangements, featuring perpetually flowing melodies and chords, which Manoel Macía is renowned for. It's totally unpredictable what will follow next within a track. If you like this album, try "La noche escalonada" and "Infinito", too - you will be royally pleased. Sven B. Schreiber (sbs)

Manoel Macía's latest work at the time of this writing is an epic 39-minute instrumental suite, celebrating all of the exquisite sounds that can be created with guitars, mandolins, and synths. This album is restless in the most positive meaning of the word - that is, it never stays for too long with a theme, but moves on perpetually to great new ideas. I recommend to put on your "Anthony Phillips ears" to listen to this music. Sven B. Schreiber (sbs)
