            <title>Bandone&Atilde;&sup3;n ... On A Song From The Sound Of Music?</title>
            <link>http://samocampo.com/news.html#16</link>
            <description><![CDATA[</form><img style="margin-left:-1px" src="http://www.samocampo.com/images/coco.jpg" /><br /><br />As part of putting the finishing touches on his new album <i>Poems</i>, Sam went back to Capitol Studios to add an exotic musical color to a song he had recorded a few months before with jazz bassist Chuck Berghofer and jazz drummer Peter Erskine.  The song, <i>Something Good</i> from <i>The Sound Of Music</i>, is one of Sam's favorites. The "exotic musical color" chosen was the Argentinean bandoneÃ³n, performed by virtuoso Coco Trivisonno (pictured above).  Coco also plays on Sam's fully orchestrated version of the tango <i>Malena</i>, to be released later in 2009, on another album entitled <i>Romance</i>.  You can hear Coco's performances on dozens of recordings, including Luis Miguel's <i>El DÃ­a Que Me Quieras</i> and Roberto Carlos's <i>Volver</i>.]]></description>
