Extractions: HILARIO DURAN Released by the Montreal-based label Justin Time, Killer Tumbao is an all-star session that features the visionary arrangements and imaginative solos of one of Cuba's top jazz pianists, Hilario Dur¡n, who rose to prominence in the 1980s as Arturo Sandoval's musical director. After Sandoval's unexpected defection to the U.S., Dur¡n inherited the trumpeter's Cuban group, subsequently known as Perspective. On this particular occasion, however, Dur¡n heads a 14-piece band that features various legendary old-timers (Changuito, Tata G¼ines, etc.) and a few young warriors, including the promising 22 year old trap drummer Dafnis Prieto. Besides Dur¡n, there are two other veterans of Sandoval's Cuban ensemble- tumbador/g¼iro player Reinaldo "Pichy" Valera and bassist Jorge Reyes (who appears on the album cover, behind Dur¡n, in the midst of Old Havana). The cast even includes a Canadian-born reedwoman who has become in recent years (like Celine Valle, Maraca's French spouse) a de facto Cuban - flutist/soprano saxophonist Jane Bunnett. In addition to Yemay¡s rituals, there are a couple of compositional tributes to be found. Afredo's Mood is dedicated to the number one Cuban pianist north of Key West (the wild Alfredo Rodriguez, Paris' best kept musical secret), while Homage to Chano Pozo is a percussive tour de force ignited by Tata, Changuito and Dafnis Prieto. The disc ends with an exciting jam that features not one but two wonderful bassists, Jorge Reyes and Roberto Occhipinti, both of whom have kept alive the descarga legacy of Israel Cachao.

If Ken Burns' JAZZ had explored the cross-pollination of jazz with Afro-Cuban rhythms, he would have crossed Calle Broadway into North Beach in San Francisco and found the pivotal contributions of Cal Tjader's Latin Jazz Quintet. Tjader died May 5, 1982 in the Philippines, but in the 1950s and 1960s he was one of the city's most important musical exports, with a unique Latin jazz sound that fused the cool of the west with the driving Afro-Cuban beats of the east. Present were luminaries such as Baseball Hall of Famer Orlando Cepeda, composer/pianist Clare Fischer, Bay Area salsa pioneers Benny Velarde and Manny Duran, and Tjader's Grammy-winning 1980 combo: Rob Fisher (bass), Mark Levine (piano), Vince Lateano and Pete Riso (drums), Roger Glenn (flute) and Poncho S¡nchez. Conga drum great Mongo Santamara was to perform, but after the September11 attack could not get transportation out to the Bay Area. The evening began with The Latin Jazz Youth Ensemble under the direction of John Calloway. The group featured the talents of flautist Daniel Riera and vibist Sam Ferguson (a first year UC Berkeley student who came out of the award winning Berkeley High School Jazz Band).

Curiosidades Frank Fernández to perform pieces of Cuban musicians in Spain By Bárbara Vasallo Vasallo Matanzas, Jan 28 (AIN) Prestigious piano player Frank Fernández will perform since January 31 st in Spain, a complete anthology of Cuban composers of the 19th century Manuel Saumell and Ignacio Cervantes. After a deep study of the work of those great men who changed the Cuban scores and created rythms that became musical genres, Fernández prepared CD and critic edition of contredanse and dances. "This anthology will be presented in the world for the first time. I was invited to give two concerts, one in Madrid and other in Barcelona, but I will not only take the message of Saumell and Cervantes, but also those of Chopin, Mozart, Lecuona and a little of Frank Fernández", the pianist told AIN. Regarding the universality in the world of Saumell and Cervantes, and even in that of Lecuona, authors of renowned pieces for piano, the famous concert pianist stated that that quality has always been in them, but not everyone in the world have devoted the necessary time to discover it.

Extractions: Pianist Edward Simon speaks of three elements in his past, each of which show up in uncanny ways in his music today. He grew up in the coastal town of Cardon, Venezuela, in a musical family. He came to the United States in 1984 to study classical music. And by the time he was in his late teens, he was traveling the world as a sideman to prominent Jazz and Latin musicians. All of these experiences - or musical roots - find a home in his contemporary work. While he may be considered as part of a new generation of 'multilingual' musicians who have grown up studying classical, Jazz and Latin-American music, the 29-year-old pianist is inventing a language that transcends any rigid genre. The sincerity of this effort is apparent on his latest release.
Repertoire : Paquito D'Rivera whirlwind of today, as he has been a pianist at a composers as Heitor Villalobos(Brazil), Carlos Guastavino (Argentina), ignacio cervantes, Ernesto Lecuona http://www.quasar4.com/anglais/info/acompositeur/adrivera.html
Extractions: Born in Havana on June 4, 1948, Paquito D'Rivera was a child prodigy who began his musical studies at the age of five under the tutelage of his father Tito, himself a well-known classical saxophonist and educator in Cuba. At age six, the "wonderkind" was already performing in public, and when he was seven, became the youngest artist to endorse a musical instrument, when he signed on the with legendary Selmer company. In 1958 the ten yearz old D'Rivera performed at the national Theater in Havana, to overwhelming acclaim by both critics and audience. He entered the Havana conservatory at age twelve, and graduated a virtuoso on both the clarinet and saxophone. In 1965 the 19 year old D'Rivera performed as featured soloist with the Cuban National Symphony Orchestra, in a concert broadcast on national television. He was already a veteran of many concerts broadcast throughout Cuba. In 1967 D'Rivera, with pianist Chucho Valdes, founded the renowned Orquesta Cubana de Musica Moderna, which he subsequently conducted for two years. Eight of the younger, more adventurous members of the Orchestra, eventually formed "Irakere", whose explosive mixture of jazz, rock, classical and traditional Cuban music had certainly never been heard before. Irakere's 1978 performance at the Newport/New York and Montreux Jazz Festival caused a sensation, and they made history as the first post-Castro Cuban musicians to record for an American label. But by 1980 D'Rivera was dissatisfied with the constraints placed on his music in Cuba, and in early 1981 while on tour in Spain, he sought asylum at the American Embassy and left his homeland forever.
Extractions: This performance took place after the celebration of Marta Argerich Festival. The Cuban artist 's performance followed Kriztoff Jalonsky's (winner of Chopin International Contest in Varsovia). Hereafter his launching far beyond our boundaries, he started to trascend soon after his attendance at Chaikovsky International Piano Contest, in Moscow 1986, where he was bestowed with Six Prize and the Special Prize to Mastery. last year was prodigal: he offers recitals at the Principal Salon in UNESCO headquarters, in Paris; two performances at Arab Emirates; a concert with Morelia 460 Orchestra, conducted by master Jorge Rivero (Concert in La Minor by Grieg) and another in Music Festival of Vigo Are More, where luminaries for the likes of Teresa Berganza and Vadim Repin performed. Some artists are pretending to record easy-selling music and it is wrong. The Cuban discography is delayed respecting to the quantity and quality of our interpreters. I also think our CDs prizes are too expensive and it is lacking a appropiate promotion which needs a special emphasis, because this sort of music must have a different treatment, specially after the Buena Vista Social Club phenomena. I'm satisfied with this EGREM's resourcefulness, although I'm not included, I only recorded a CD in Argentina and Bis Music (EGREM's label) edited it some years ago.

Both Spanish and African influences are readily apparent to the casual listeners of Cuban songs and music. A History of Cuban Concert Music The history of Cuban music is a vast, intriguing, exciting and occasionally overwhelming fresco. From its nebulous origins to today's universal recognition, Cuban music has grown in stature, and its folkloric and popular aspects have progressively influenced the music-making of other cultures. After its inception in the mid-18th century, and its formalization and development during the 19th century, Cuban music first burst upon the international scene with great force in the 1920s. As with the music of other countries, Cuban music clearly offers two sides of a coin: one directly nurtured by folkloric elements and popular (and subsequently commercial) forms of expression, and another, more abstract and complex, where composers from Cuba have followed the difficult route of art music. This last form of communication, concert music, is the one less recognized in the international market-usually for lack of exposure-and often is ignored by Cubans themselves. In many ways, as is usually the case with countries possessing a very rich folklore (and consequently voracious producers of dance and pop vocal music), Cuban popular music has vastly overshadowed Cuban art music.

Extractions: From the nineteenth century, and indeed even since 1947 when Chase wrote those words, Cuban music, with its almost countless unique rhythms, instruments, melodies and forms, has become a worldwide phenomenon. It has influenced classical music, jazz, film music, Broadway, popular and dance music, and has inspired legions of fans in countries around the world as far-flung as Japan. Gottschalk was born on May 8, 1829 in New Orleans, Louisiana. His father was a Jewish émigré from Great Britain, his mother a refugee from Saint-Domingue. Twenty-six years after the Louisiana Purchase, New Orleans was a cornucopia of cultural and musical influences. Its culture was a mix of American, French, African, Cuban, Haitian, and native Creole. The music Gottschalk heard as he was growing up would provide a fertile breeding ground for his musical development and would have a lasting effect. Native music and its rhythms would be the dominant theme in his compositions until his untimely death in 1869 in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, at the age of 40. Fig.1: Gottschalk as a young man

Extractions: AT THE NATIONAL ARTS CLUB Born in Havana, Cuba, Victor Rodriguez, showed notable signs of his sensitivity toward music from a very early age. Winning 5th Prize and the Special Prize for Artistic Excellence at the P.I. Tchaikovsky International Piano Competition in 1986, positioned him among the elite pianists of his generation. His academic formation, guided by Frank Fernandez, was firmly grounded in the values of the Russian School and the traditions of the Cuban technique. Thus the originality with which he encompasses the different styles and composers, as well as his youthfulness, passion and ability to communicate with the audience. "… In an age where technical prowess is the most regarded of pianistic qualities, his generous execution and passion is more like that of the last romantic artists that, like Horowitz, disappear from our musical horizon. Victor has performed his very demanding repertoire, which includes some of the most important works of the greatest composers, on the stages of Europe, South America, South Africa, Mexico and Japan. Victor Rodriguez is nothing like the perfectly gifted and standardized pianists of this century whom impose their own execution style and result in being: exact, objective and dispassionate. On the contrary, Rodriguez compels the attention of the audience with a certain magnetism and an emotional quality that he projects genuinely and sincerely.
