The album "Dreams" is the most personal statement of Carmen Cuesta - Loeb so far. On one hand she has interpreted such standards as the Jobim hymn "Corcovado, the Rodgers/Hart classic "My Romance" or George Harrison's "Something" in a way all her own. On the other she also placed a great deal of weight on a blend of songs sung in English and Spanish. As diverse as they are, they are intended to reflect how cosmopolitan her life is, but at the same time become what she modestly calls an "exciting American-Spanish love affair".

The songs are enhanced by solos from Germany's No.1 jazz musician Till Brönner (flugelhorn), US keyboard authority Bob James (Fourplay), Andy Snitzer and jazz legend Michael Brecker. Hubby Chuck Loeb, meanwhile advanced to a paramount No. 1 Jazz Radio Artist in the US of A, contributes the finest of solo parts and all the know-how it takes after years as a producer. http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/ccuestaloeb2
