A Night In The Dominican Republic

The Dominican Republic has long been recognized for being the epicenter of the traditional Merengue style. However, the blueprint for modernizing the Merengue style can be found in Johnny Ventura's early work, in which he boasts a unique sound observed in "Merenguero al la Tambora"; pure energy and Dominican flavor. Bachata, a more laid back distant cousin of merengue has seen a spike in popularity over the last few decades and is yet another feather in Dominican Republic’s cap of musical contributions. A Night In... Dominican Republic encompasses the dancing rhythms of the Merengue and Bachata styles. This collection includes performances by such legendary artists as: Johnny Ventura, Milly Quezada, Wilfrido Vargas, Victor Victor, and so many more.
