Title: Bloodless
Review: The sensational Romanian Gypsy group Taraf de Haidouks has justifiably become one of the hottest attractions on the world music circuit, so somebody must have had the idea of capitalizing on their celebrity by getting them to do "re-gypsified" versions of classical compositions derived from Rom sources.The idea definitely does not work. Here we have new arrangements of works by Bartok, Khachatourian and others that just squeeze the vitality out of them. I hope never again to hear so pathetically bloodless a version of Falla's Ritual Fire Dance. A saving grace is that about a third of the disc is the group doing its own thing. But most of these selections can be found on other albums, so if you're a Taraf de Haidouks fan, forget this.
