Lamento Náufrago (album)

This sensational orchestra was founded two years ago, the conductor of the same being Jesús "Chucho" Sanoja, who gives a special character to the orchestra with his most personal arrangements. This young musician is not only a conductor, partition-arranger, but he is also pianist and composer of real merit, having more than five hundred inedit compositions. Other ones, which he has published in previous years, have reached high popularity, as for the instance "Maracaibo", Bolero; "Campesina", Bolero; "Merecumbé Gitano", Merecumbé, and many others. Our artist made studies of general music, armony and composition, learning from the late Venezuelan pianist, José Pérez Figueras.

Sanoja had at the beginning small orchestra-groups and performed at a great many boites and night-clubs; however, the development of television encouraged him to take up his already well known orchestra, which is a most successful one in each of its performances. This orchestra has the honor to have played in the best Caracas places just when they were founded, among others the Tamanaco hotel; the orchestra played also in three dates in which Venezuelan towns commemorated their four centuries of age.

There is no orchestra now that can equal Sanoja's; it is unique in style, and from a recording point of view, it is the most demanded orchestra today.

We are most sure about the success of this Long Play. The high quality from a technical point of view, as well as from the artistical one makes us believe in the greatest success.
