[Gramophone "Sentimiento Latino Juan Diego Flórez Decca – Every tenor worth his salt seems to have a weakness for a set of what might be seen as vulgar songs. Domingo has his zarzuela, Alagna his recent foray into the repertoire of Luis Mariano and now Florez his Latin folksongs. No insult intended, it's very enjoyable and pretty forgettable – but vocally dazzling."]
The album features guest artists Daniel Binelli, Mariachi de Oro, Swang Lin, Xiao-Hua Sheng, Eugene Cherkasov, David Gálvez, Michael Shih, Adriana Voirin DeCosta, Laura Bruton, Karen Basrak, William Clay, Shields-Collins Bray
