On February 7th, Raúl DiBlasio appeared at CNN en Español's program "Cala" where he was interviewed by Ismael Cala in Miami where he was celebrating his 20-year career performing two concerts there.
DiBlasio shared several anecdotes about his concerts, his family, his beginnings and his hobbies.
Here are some insights shared at the interview:
The Jean-Jacques Justafre Orchestra toured in October and November of 2010 in Russia and near countries. The concerts were full of controversy due to the unethical way of promoting the concerts, which prompted the reaction by Paul Mauriat's widow, Mrs. Irene Mauriat, and also because part of the audience was expecting some arrangements closer to Mauriat's arrangements and what they received were other arrangements and only a few of the themes that were popular with the Mauriat orchestra.
Despite all of this, it is good that there is still room for some orchestras to be touring and let's hope that there are more concerts but without relating to the immortal arrangements of Paul Mauriat.

But in order to do this, I have recreated the blog in another location and uploaded all entries there. The comments are gone, but they were only a couple of them anyway.
I will keep updating the blog from now on. And sorry for the inconveniences.
The old location has been rerouted to this new location.
There are great videos at online sites but it's hard to find those that are original and not fan's tributes, so here I will try to select some that have our kind of music.
This was stated by Madame Irene Mauriat, the widow of the famous French conductor and composer Paul Mauriat. This October and November, there were many disappointed people in Russia among those who came to the concerts of the widely publicized tour of the legendary Paul Mauriat's Grand Orchestra. Soon, a similar reaction awaits residents of the Baltic States.
