Review

While not as strong as his best albums like Más, El Alma al Aire does present a solid collection of ballads. Highlights include the title track and the leadoff track, "Cuando Nadia Me Ve." This album also features a number of well-known performers, including Ludovico Vagnone and pianist Emanuele Ruffinengo, as well as an impressive string section. ~ Stacia Proefrock, All Music Guide

El Alma al Aire is the fifth studio album recorded by Spanish singer-songwriter Alejandro Sanz in which he gives us interpretations that come from the soul, melodies in which it seems that the voice breaks. It is one of his more suggestive and emotive works. It beat all the records of sale of the Spanish market on having reached the 1,000,000 copies in the first week [1].
