Ottmar liebert biography of abraham
Driver sees this man on the shoulder, barely moving. Native American, Indian, possibly Mexican He sat up front with our driver, drank coffee, and we let him out in El Rondo, near the Burger King. I didn't talk to him but he caught my eye as the bus was pulling away It was much later when I thought about my old friend Frank Howell and his paintings, especially the one called The Messenger.
So you see, when I'm looking through the bus window at this stranger, maybe I'm not looking at a face, I'm looking at a painting or The music was beautiful, like something I wanted to do but hadn't. Frank Howell died suddenly in Visual art is integral to Ottmar Liebert's world-view -- in his youth he studied graphic design in Cologne, Germany, and to this day is a compulsive photographer -- because, like flamenco, painting is an integer between the flesh and the spirit.
Some days you can see for a miles, think you can reach into the sky or walk off a ridge and keep flying. Guess that's how I felt when I recorded Nouveau Flamenco.

Nouveau Flamenco. The album's genesis is a classic tale of independent expression as entrepreneurial karma. Local Santa Fe artist Frank Howell wanted an audio illustration for his series of lithographs Marita: Shadows and Storms and arranged for the pressing of a limited edition copies CD to be distributed with his prints. Indeed it did. This "new flamenco" came to the attention of Higher Octave Music, a label in Los Angeles, who remastered Marita and released it in as Nouveau Flamenco.
