Charlie Palmieri Charlie Palmieri Charlie Palmieri (November 21, 1927 – September 12, 1988) was a renowned bandleader and musical director of salsa music. He was known as “The Giant of the Keyboards”. Also known as “El Gigante de las Blancas y Las Negras” Born November 21, 1927 New York City, New York Died September 12, 1988 (aged 60) New York City, New York Genres Salsa Occupations Bandleader, musical director. Early years Palmieri’s parents migrated to New York from Ponce, Puerto Rico in 1926 and settled down in the South Bronx where Palmieri (birth name: Carlos Manuel Palmieri) was born. As a child Palmieri taught himself to play the piano by ear. He went to school in the public school system. At age 7 his father enrolled him at The Juilliard School, where he took piano lessons. By the time Palmieri was 14 years old, he participated in many talent contests where they won many prizes with his 5-year old brother, Eddie. It was at this time that his godfather introduced him to the music of the Latin bands – an experience which inspired him to become a musician.[1] In 1943, when still only 16 years old and still in High School, he made his professional debut as a piano player for the Osario Selasie Band. He graduated from High School in 1946, and immediately went to play for various bands. He made his recording debut with the song “Se Va La Rumba” as a member of the Rafael Muñiz Band.[2] Musical career In October 1947, Tito Puente, the musical director of the Fernando Álvarez Band, was impressed with Palmieri and hired him to play for his band at the Copacabana Club; here he played with Tito until 1953 and during the 1950s he played with various bands. Besides having played with Tito Puente, he played with Pupi Campo’s Band and worked on Jack Paar’s CBS daytime television show. Palmieri also formed a couple of bands that performed at the Palladium Ballroom – these were however short-lived because of a lack of work. During this time, he also worked as an accompanist for other bands.[3] Palmieri worked for several years in Chicago, but returned to New York and formed a band called “Charanga La Duboney”. While performing at the Monte Carlo Ballroom, Palmieri heard a young man by the name of Johnny Pacheco playing the flute – the playing so impressed him that he hired him on the spot. The mixture of Pacheco’s flute with the strings of the violins in Palmieri’s band led to the 1960s Charanga craze in the United States. Palmieri was signed by the United Artists Record company and had several Latino hits. Palmieri did however suffer various setbacks – first Pacheco left the band and then United Artists cancelled his contract because of a conflict of interest with their other recording star, Tito Rodríguez. This led to Palmieri’s signing with the Alegre Records label and with whom he had two best selling “hits” with “Como Bailan La Pachanga” and “La Pachanga Se Baila Así”.[3] When the Charanga craze declined in popularity, Palmieri switched to the new trend, the Boogaloo, by replacing the flute and violins with three trumpets and two trombones, he also dropped the word “Charanga” from his bands’ name and it became known simply as “La Duboney”.[1] In 1965, he scored a hit with “Tengo Máquina y Voy a 60” (Going like 60) and in 1967 with “Hay Que Estar En Algo/Either You Have It or You Don’t”. In 1968, Palmieri recorded “Latin Bugalú” under the Atlantic Records label, which was also released in the United Kingdom.[3] In the 1970s, Palmieri worked as the musical director for Tito Puente’s television show “El Mundo de Tito Puente” (Tito Puente’s World). He also taught and lectured about Latin music and culture at various educational institutions. After reorganizing his band, Palmieri played the organ and recorded “La Hija de Lola” (Lola’s daughter) and “La Vecina” (The neighbor). In 1971, he provided his organ playing talents to some of his brother’s recordings.[2] In 1978, he added the Melódica to his recording The Heavyweight, an LP recorded for Alegre Records that also featured Bobby Rodríguez on bass, Quique Dávila on timbales, Papiro Allende on congas, Willie Rodríguez on bongoes, Roy Román y Lou Laurita on trumpets, Bobby Nelson on sax, Marco Katz on trombone, Harry Viggiano on tres, and the vocalists Meñique, Julito Villot, and Adalberto Santiago.[4][5] Among the artists Palmieri worked with at one time or another were his brother Eddie, Celia Cruz, Tito Puente, Herbie Mann, Ismael Rivera, Rafael Cortijo, Ismael Quintana, Bobby Capó, Mongo Santamaría and Ray Barretto. Later years In 1980, Palmieri moved back to Puerto Rico but returned to New York for business – on one trip there he suffered a massive heart attack and stroke. He soon recovered and returned to the music world as the member of various bands. On June 1988, he debuted in the United Kingdom accompanied by London’s Robin “King Salsa” Jones.[2] Palmieri gave private piano lessons to students at the Schuylerville Music Center in the Throggs Neck section of the Bronx in New York. During this time he also appeared in the 1988 movie Salsa.[1] Four days before his death, Palmieri gave a private show at La Fortaleza in San Juan, Puerto Rico, where he performed solo at the piano for the Governor of Puerto Rico (at the time, Rafael Hernández Colón) and his guests. On September 12, 1988, Charlie Palmieri suffered another heart attack upon his arrival at New York where as the musical director of the Joe Cuba Sextet he was to arrange a concert. He died later that day at Jacobi Hospital in the Bronx.[2] Tributes On November 6, 2004, a Big Band Tribute to Charlie Palmieri was held at Avery Fisher Hall at the Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts. The Harbor Conservatory for the Performing Arts hosts an annual competition for the Charlie Palmieri Memorial Piano Scholarship. The winner of the competition receives a scholarship to study Latin piano music at the Conservatory. The scholarship was started by Palmieri’s lifetime friend, the late Tito Puente.[6] Another notable friend and colleague of Palmieri’s, as well as a great admirer, was the late Clare Fischer, who chose to kick off his 1989 album, Lembranças (Remembrances), with “C.P.”, a piece dedicated to the composer’s recently departed role model. In Fischer’s words: “C.P. – Charlie Palmieri – is dedicated to the wonderfully exciting pianist whom I have idolized for years! Charlie left us last year and the sadness I felt shows itself in some of the segments interspersed among the more spirited sections. We will miss him!” Discography Easy Does It El Gigante (aka Ravel’s Bolero in Mambo) Cuban Rhythms Charanga (1959) Pachanga at the Caravana Club (1960) Performed at the Bronx Opera House Viva Palmieri (1961) Salsa Na’ Ma’ (1962) Salsa y Charanga Tengo Máquina y Voy a 60 (1965) Either You Have It Or You Don’t (1966) Latin Bugalú (1968) Adelante Gigante (1973) El Gigante del Teclado (1974) Vuelve el Gigante (1975) The Heavyweight (1976) Con Salsa y Sabor (1977) Electroduro Impulsos A Giant Step Mambo Show Alegre All-Stars Vol. 1 (1961) Alegre All-Stars Vol. 2 – El Manicero (1964) Alegre All-Stars Vol. 3 – Lost and Found (1965) Alegre All-Stars Vol. 4 – Way Out (1966) Alegre All-Stars Vol. 5 – They Don’t Make ‘Em Like Us Anymore (1976) Alegre All-Stars Vol. 6 – Perdido/Te Invita (1977) (2008) Cesta All Stars Vol. 1 – (1975) Cesta All Stars Vol. 2 – (1976) Latin Mann – 1965 (accompanied Herbie Mann) – Columbia Records Primo – 1972 (accompanied Cal Tjader) – Fantasy Records La Cuna – 1982 (accompanied Ray Barretto) Video Links: By Pete Nater Credits: Year Album Artist Café Salsa: Hot 2014 Primary Artist Rhythms & Latin Spirit 2012 Simply Salsa [2012] Primary Artist Hammock House: Africa Joaquin “Joe” 2011 Composer Caribe Claussell Eddie 2011 Salsa Brothers Primary Artist Palmieri La Salsa In Bronx: 2010 Primary Artist Bella Epoca Composer, Primary 2010 Latin Lounge: Havana Artist Composer, Primary 2010 Latin Lounge: San Juan Artist Ponte Duro: The Fania Fania All- 2010 Composer All Stars Story Stars The Complete 78s, 2010 Tito Puente Composer Vols. 3-4: 1949-1955 Café Salsa: Bongos, 2009 Congas and Hot Latin Primary Artist Rhythms Alegre All- 2009 Jazz Composer Stars 2009 Salsa de Amor, Vol. 4 Primary Artist 2009 Simply Latin Party Primary Artist The Complete 78s, Vol. 2009 Tito Puente Composer 3 The Complete 78s, Vol. 2009 Tito Puente Performer 4 Beginner’s Guide to 2008 Primary Artist Latin Jazz Year Album Artist Beginner’s Guide to 2008 Primary Artist Salsa 2008 Cha Cha Cha, Vol. 1 Composer, Primary 2008 [Fania] Artist Hot and Spicy Salsa 2008 Hits [Madacy Latino Primary Artist 2008] Latin Jazz: Essential 2008 Primary Artist Guide Leyendas de La Fania, 2008 Primary Artist Vol. 6 2008 On Two, Vol. 1 Primary Artist 2008 Salsa Fever [Wagram] Primary Artist 2008 Salsa [Union Square] Primary Artist Salsa: A Musical 2008 Primary Artist History Salsa: Intro 2008 Primary Artist Collection The Essential Guide to 2008 Primary Artist Latin Jazz The House That Al Built: The Alegre Composer, Primary 2008 Records Story Artist 1957-1977 Cha Cha Cha at the 2007 Primary Artist Palladium, Vol. 1 Charanga at the 2007 Primary Artist Palladium, Vol. 1 2007 Con un Combo Tipico Vitín Avíles Maracas, Piano Essential Guide to 2007 Primary Artist Latin Year Album Artist Fania DJ Series: Gilles 2007 Primary Artist Gilles Peterson Peterson Fania Live 02: From 2007 DJ Lespam Primary Artist Miami Fania Signature, Vol.

This dance, now known as “on 2” mambo, or salsa, for its relationship to the clave, is the first uniquely North American form of vernacular Latino dance on the East Coast. This paper traces the New York mambo’s develop- ment from its beginnings at the Palladium Ballroom through the salsa and hustle years and up to the present time. The current period is characterized by increasing growth, commercialization, codification, and a blending with other modern, urban dance genres such as hip-hop.

GARRIDO-PÉREZ1 Introduction Even before the 1980s, the efforts for the conservation of wildlife and the introduc- tion of environmental topics started to get into the mass media (BOYKOFF and BOYKOFF, 2007), school and pre-school education (PERALES and GARCÍA GRANADA, 1999, and the political and business arenas (MEFFE and VIEDERMAN, 1995) in order to reach both the great majority of people and the decision makers. Encouraging results have been obtained, such as the addition of three million hectares of land for conserving forests in Latin America; yet high rates of deforestation remain as a challenge there (FAO, 2012). Problems of the agricultural sector interrupted the links between nature on the one hand and the millions of people previously related to it on the other hand (e.g.

  • RAFAEL CORTIJO Perc
    AMIGOS DEL SON CALI Audición Mayo 6 de 2011 “CORTIJO Y SU COMBO Y VIENTOS MOVIDOS PARA EL BAILADOR” RAFAEL CORTIJO Percusionista, Compositor y Director Fecha de nacimiento: 11 de diciembre de 1928 , Parada 21, Santurce, Puerto Rico Falleció el 3 de octubre de 1982 en Santurce, Puerto Rico En el diccionario de la música afroantillana, el nombre de Rafael Cortijo es sinónimo de leyenda. Una de sus figuras cumbres y más veneradas. Líder de una de las organizaciones rítmicas más admiradas durante la segunda mitad del Siglo 20: Cortijo y Su Combo. Maestro del tambor caribeño. Inspirador de dos generaciones de cultores de la rumba y de los puertorriqueñísimos ritmos de bomba y plena. Este personaje irrepetible, de origen muy humilde, era hijo de Juan Cortijo Clemente y Juana Verdejo, quienes también procrearon a Francisco, Cecilia, Rosa y Gilberto. Contaba 11 años cuando el trompetista Paulino Flores lo introdujo al fascinante universo de la música caribeña enseñándole lo elemental en la ejecución del bongó. En lo sucesivo, sin maestro, aprendió a ejecutar el timbal, las tumbadoras – o congas – y algunos acordes en la guitarra. A los 14 emprendió su carrera musical uniéndose, como bongosero, al Conjunto Hermanas Soustache (1943-1944). Posteriormente (1944-1947) figuró en el Conjunto Monterrey, de Monchito Muley y Juan Palm «Mentoquín». Durante el período 1947-1953 trabajó de manera alternada con las orquestas de Frank Madera, Armando Castro, Augusto Coén y Miguelito Miranda, así como con la Sonora Boricua de Daniel Santos y los conjuntos acompañantes de Bobby Capó, Myrta Silva, Ruth Fernández y Miguelito Valdés, culminando aquella etapa con el dirigido por el pianista Mario Román en La Riviera Night Club, en el Viejo San Juan.
