Chico Álvarez El Indio Caonabo Latin Jazz Alive and Well Windows Media Jazz Latino Vivito y Coleando Quicktime By Rudy Mangual

Bio Ritmo I'm still experiencing a bad taste in my mouth as a result of last year's NARAS fiasco, when the La Muralla Latin jazz category (among others) was eliminated from its roster, generating months of protests,

Streaming Music outrage and even a lawsuit, before NARAS reinstated Latin jazz back into the system. In the end, Latin jazz musicians gained strength and unity from this experience, making the genre even stronger, more versatile and universal than ever. Louie Cruz Beltran Paint the Rhythm In order to pinpointing the genesis of Latin jazz or, to be more precise, Afro-Cuban jazz (as it was Windows Media original known), we have to go back to the early days of jazz and the music of Jelly Roll Morton, Quicktime who utilized Cuban habanera elements in his 1920s compositions, an approach he called "the Spanish tinge." He indicated that his "Spanish tinge" was an integral part of the formation of jazz music. Shorthly thereafter, the Puerto Rican trombonist Juan Tizol composed a jazz standard, Cintron Live "Caravan" that also revealed such "Spanish tinge", but was not clave-based. While directing the Human Nature big band known as and his Afro-Cubans in 1943, Mario Bauzá penned the score titled Windows Media "Tanga", which is regarded as the first true Latin jazz composition written within the 2-3 Cuban Quicktime clave meter.

Vanelis In 1947, innovator and jazz legend , along with Cuban drummer Como Lo Extraño , wrote "Manteca," the first jazz standard to be rhythmically based on the Cuban Windows Media clave. The partnership of Gillespie and Pozo somewhat internationalized the new Afro-Cuban jazz Quicktime movement, which they baptized as "cubop", in reference to the fusion of bebop with Afro-Cuban rhythms. From this point on, the marriage of jazz and Afro-Cuban rhythms started gaining fans and popularity all over the world. Nayibe Borinquen Drummer/vibraphonist came onto the scene in the early 1950s and featured a young Windows Media Cuban conga player by the name of Mongo Santamaría and his percussive Nuyorican protégé Quicktime Willie Bobo. In Spanish Harlem, two young musicians, both going by the same nickname "Tito" (Puente and Rodríguez) were battling it out at the legendary Palladium nightclub in New York City next to their idol Frank Grillo, better known as Machito. Many others followed, including Charlie Luis González and , , Sabú Martínez, Cándido Camero, and Patato Valdés, to Spain mention but a few. Windows Media Quicktime In Brazil, the West Coast cool jazz movement had inspired movement that emerged in the mid-1950s and was nourished by the rhythms. By the early 1960s, bossa nova Rolando Sanchez gained worldwide popularity, under the leadership of Antonio Carlos Jobim, João Gilberto and Vamonos De Fiesta Stan Getz.

Windows Media Quicktime After the initial participation of Cuban musicians and rhythms into the Latin jazz musical stew, Cuban musicians living in Cuba were mostly forgotten after the establishment of the U.S. "embargo" in the early 1960s, with very few making an impact in Latin jazz until the emergence of Steve Pouchie the group in the mid-1970s. Led by pianist Chucho Valdés, Irakere featured Paquito Watch Ur Wallet D'Rivera and among several other top Cuban players In addition, Cuba has Windows Media been musically represented in the U.S. by Mongo Santamaría, Chico O'Farrill, Israel "Cachao" Quicktime López, Cándido Camero, , Chino Pozo, Patato Valdés, and , (and later by Paquito D'Rivera, Arturo Sandoval, and subsequent musical defectors.). Somos Son Today, Latin jazz has no set boundaries, limitations or set conditions. The new blends include a Bilongo

Windows Media wide range of forms and genres from , the Antilles, and the Iberian Peninsula, Quicktime including but not limited to Andalucian flamenco, Argentinean and milonga, Afro-Peruvian landó, Colombian , Venezulean vals, and multilingual rhythms from all the islands in the . The Estrada Brothers Mr. Ray In 1993, trombonist/bandleader William Cepeda proclaimed his music to be "Afro-Rican jazz" Windows Media (blending the traditional rhythms of Afro-Puerto Rican music with jazz). Latin jazz bands are Quicktime calling home places such as Japan, Sweden, France, Great Britain, Australia, and Holland, just to name but a few. Some Latin jazz artists you need to check out, aside from the already mentioned, include the Fort Apache Band, Bongó Logic, Jane Bunnett, Michel Camilo, Chano Manny Silvera Domínguez, Caribbean Jazz Project, Cubanismo, Jorge Dalto, Frank Emilio, Hilario Durán, Bassed in America Giovanni Hidalgo, Mark Levine, , Danilo Pérez, Hilton Ruiz, Bobby Sanabria, Windows Media Sonido Isleño, Batacumbele, John Santos, Papo Vásquez, Orlando "Maraca" Valle, Bobby Quicktime Matos, Azymuth, Henry Cole, and Miguel Zenón.

The following are three Latin jazz acts that are enjoying new live groundbreaking recordings as of this writing. Two of them are veteran West Coast bandleaders and household names in the world of Latin jazz (Poncho Sánchez and Pete Escovedo) and the third one is one of the top progressive and experimental new Latin jazz bands in the scene: Ninety Miles (featuring David Sánchez, Stefon Harris and Christian Scott).

Ninety Miles - Live At Cubadisco

3 of 51 11/12/2005 1:01 AM LBMO.com - Latin Beat Magazine - Latin Music Magazine - Features http://www.latinbeatmagazine.com/features.html

Vibraphonist Stefon Harris (a four-time Grammy-nominee from Albany, New York), saxophonist David Sánchez (a Grammy recipient, native of ) and Christian Scott (a Grammy- nominated trumpeter from New Orleans) front the group "Ninety Miles" — an adventurous collaborative project which bridges jazz modalities with the rhythms of the Caribbean, reaffirming the powerful forces of today's Latin jazz. By the way, ninety miles is the distance separating the Florida Keys from Cuba. It's the gap that keeps two people apart due to political differences, but cannot separate the joy, love and passion for music shared by both sides.

Recorded live on May 18, 2010, at 's Teatro Amadeo Roldán during the annual festival called Cubadisco, "Ninety Miles — Live At Cubadisco" captures the profound musical eloquence of these young lions of jazz with a little help from some highly talented Cuban musicians such as pianists/bandleaders Harold López-Nussa and Rember Duharte.

The magic in this live recording is boundless, inspiring playful improvisations, while reflecting the cross-cultural diversity of these special players. This is not just straight-ahead jazz and Latin jazz, but a loud and clear expression from the heart and soul of these brilliant music makers. All seven tracks in this recording are outstanding and full of textural complexity. This recording also marks the first live performance of Ninety Miles and the live rehearsal for their acclaimed debut two-disc CD/DVD package released on June 21, 2011. "Ninety Miles Live At Cubadisco" had a U.S. digital release September 25, 2012 (international release dates may vary) on Concord Picante. Poncho Sánchez - Live in Hollywood

Grammy winner, master conguero, bandleader, and Latin jazz legend Poncho Sánchez is captured live and close to home, performing with his always tight L.A.-based band. "Poncho Sánchez and his Latin Jazz Band Live in Hollywood" celebrates Poncho's thirty years and 26 under the flagship of Concord Picante, living a dream that started with the recommendation of his close friend and old boss Cal Tjader to of . Jefferson was looking for new talent and Tjader highly recommended Sánchez. The rest is history. "Live in Hollywood" finds Sánchez and his posse of jazzistas at their best.

Recorded this year during the "Hollywood & Highland KKJZ Summer Concert Series", this live immediately starts swinging to the beat of the tune "Promenade," which set the stage for his first-ever "Poncho Sánchez Medley" (re-living many of the favorite scores of the master conguero).

7 of 51 11/12/2005 1:01 AM LBMO.com - Latin Beat Magazine - Latin Music Magazine - Features http://www.latinbeatmagazine.com/features.html

Trombonist and musical director Francisco Torres has been urging Sánchez to do this medley for the past ten years. Now that it's done, Poncho says he's already working on another one for his next recording. Other tracks in this Latin jazz dance party pay homage to two of Sánchez's biggest influences: keyboardist, , arranger Clare Fischer and Latin percussion icon Mongo Santamaría. He chose Fischer's composition "Morning," which appeared in Sánchez's first debut recording as a leader for the Discovery label before joining Concord in 1982. Poncho delivers a fiery high-octane rendition of the classic "Afro Blue" in memory of his good friend and mentor Mongo Santamaría. Closing the recording is the tasty dance-friendly "Son Son Chararí," which Sánchez introduces by saying "Alright, it's time for a little salsa!" This recording was digitally released on September 25, 2012 by Concord Picante. Poncho Sánchez will be receiving a Lifetime Achievement Award at this year's celebration in Las Vegas, Nevada. Pete Escovedo, Live From Stern Grove Festival

Conducted at the Stern Grove, a legendary cultural venue and institution, on July 22, 2012, this live recording features the legendary percussionist Pete Escovedo, whose orchestra (The E Family Band) brings together the entire musical dynasty (Pete, Juan, Peter Michael, and Sheila E). Celebrating 50 years of making Latin jazz, Pete Escovedo continues to excel and satisfy audiences worldwide with his percussive savvy and talented family.

9 of 51 11/12/2005 1:01 AM LBMO.com - Latin Beat Magazine - Latin Music Magazine - Features http://www.latinbeatmagazine.com/features.html

The new album sizzles with gems such as the classic "Picadillo Jam," showcasing Pete's mastering of the timbal. As a matter of fact, the entire percussion section is awesome throughout the concert. This recording also highlights a couple of excellent guitarists: Michael Angel Alvarado (showcased on the selections "Take Some Time" and "True or False") and Ray Obiedo, appearing on the tasty track "Brasiliero." The crowd is on its feet and dancing by the second bar of "Dance," an original salsa score by the Escovedos, featuring Sheila E on the conga drums, cooking with intensity and mucho sabor. Pete grabs the mic and sings lead on the jazz standard "Fly Me to the Moon," arranged with a Latin tinge, while Sheila E returns to play on "Sólo Tú," literally ripping the skins with her aggressively controlled attack on the drums.

The concert is also enriched with a couple of guests: Dave Koz (saxophone solo on the selection "True or False") and trumpeter Arturo Sandoval, the latter of whom delivers a dazzling performance on the closing track "Sueños de los Torreros", "Live From Stern Grove Festival was digitally released on September 25, 2012 by Concord Picante. (There will be a physical release in 2013.)

The Fourth Annual La Vida Music Festival

On Sunday, September 2, 2012, the 4th Annual La Vida Festival took place at the Ford Amphitheatre in Hollywood, California, under a stunning luminous skyline and refreshing night breeze. This beautiful intimate outdoor theatre, at almost capacity attendance, came alive as the first performers took the stage.

Directly from Brazil, the group "Ted and Pablo Ensemble" delighted the crowd with its unique acoustic raw sounds of Brazilian choro and forro rhythms. Comprised of Ted Falcon (violin, mandolin), Pablo Fagundes (harmonica), Marcus Moraes (), and George Lacerda (percussion), the group was joined by special guests Chalo Eduardo (percussion), and dancers Fransini Giraldo, Sambabody, and Arastao Maree. The group's instrumental repertoire was enjoyed by everyone, setting the tone for an amazing evening of world music.

"The Plaza de la Raza Youth Ensemble" followed, bringing the powerful sounds of mariachi music to the festival. First place winners of the 2012 Mission San Juan Capistrano's "Battle of the ," this mariachi ensemble is the result of 15 years of mariachi instruction at Plaza de la Raza in Los Angeles which began with a National Endowment for the Arts grant for summer workshops in the inner city. Under the musical direction of Ireneo Yañez and Maria Jimenez-Torres, the coed mariachi group rocked the house with its refined talents and majestic vocal interpretations. Bravo!

Bringing the festival to intermission was the group "Incendio," taking the stage as the night embraced the evening and the celestial light show came alive. Labeled as "Latin Guitar World Fusion," the five-piece ensemble delivered an explosive and energetic set of magical and percussive-based original compositions. Incendio featured Jim Stubblefield and Jean-Pierre Durand (guitars), Liza Carbé (bass), Nicole Falzone (drums), and Bryan Brock (percussion).

After intermission, the stage was set for the festival's headliner, "The Louie Cruz Beltran Latin Jazz Orchestra." Led by percussionist/bandleader Louie Cruz Beltran, who has enjoyed an outstanding year since his release of "Paint The Rhythm" (November, 2011); performed at the 34th Annual Playboy Jazz Festival at The Hollywood Bowl, at numerous festivals throughout the West Coast summer season, and for the fourth consecutive time headlined La Vida Music Festival. The eight-piece orchestra featured Carlos Vivas (piano), Tomas Gargano (bass), Nick Mancini (vibes), Justin Janer (sax/flute), Jimmy Loya (), Kenny Elliott (drums), and Chalo Eduardo sharing percussion duties with Beltran. As a bonus, Beltran also featured four young musicians from Education Through Music-Los Angeles (ETM-LA), an organization that promotes the integration of music into the curriculum of disadvantaged schools in order to enhance students' academic performance and creative development. These students included Victoria Lanier (violin), Sarah Villegas (violin), Sunny Smith (violin), and Ehrben Tellez (cello).

While The Louie Cruz Beltran Latin Jazz Orchestra performance was top-notch as always, resulting in colorful and flavorful solos from Beltran and his talented bunch of musicians, I felt a little disappointed that he chose to perform a repertoire of jazz standards and I yearned to listen to some of the material from his latest CD production "Paint the Rhythm." At the end of the

evening, every performer earned and received a well-deserved standing ovation.

Latin Beat Magazine's Radio Host Listing By Nelson Rodríguez Today more than ever the future of the music that is constantly ignored by commercial radio is in the hands of independent and public radio DJs and radio hosts who defend and see the true value of all artists worldwide. Many of these radio hosts...some who have been on radio for well over 20 years...and the newer defenders of salsa and Latin jazz are the life line that give these recordings the exposure that is required. We have become a multi-tasking society of radio hosts who also promote events, DJ at clubs, book artists/events, etc. While the average show is only one to three hours, when you add it all up it is a powerful media for artists looking to introduce themselves and expose their talent. The following list contains some of the most innovative and best radio hosts in the world that live and breathe music solely for the love of the music and some of these very same hosts are pioneers in their respective areas. We will keep this list up till the end of the year and continue to add to it as the information reaches Latin Beat Magazine.

With no radio experience "under his belt,", but a substantial knowledge of Latin music, Mr Hidalgo decided to take on this new venture, and so The Latin Jazz Show was born and aired for the first time on April 6, 2005 on WCLM 1450 AM in the City of Richmond, Virginia. The show was an instant hit, and because of the limited radio broadcasts featuring Latin music in the Richmond/Tri-Cities area, continues to be a hit to this day.

WHCR 90.3 FM - The Voice of Harlem ESSENCE & RHYTHM - Traditional Jazz, Afro-Cuban Jazz and Latin (Bilingual English/Spanish) The Program Essence& Rhythm ("E&R") is a unique music program specializing in Latin American music and Afro Cuban Jazz broadcast. E&R educates a broad and diverse audience, thus helping to bridge ethnic and cultural divides. Essence & Rhythm was incepted on January 4, 1992 as a center to promote, explore and develop Latin American arts and culture by examining the folkloric traditions and modern tendencies of the music of Latin America and the Caribbean. Nelson graduated from the "Center for the Media Arts" in radio and television production in 1990. During that year, he started to work on the radio as co-host of the show "Jazz Plus" Sundays from 5:00 pm to 9:00 pm on WHCR 90.3 FM. This responsibility prompted him to start researching about the fusion of Jazz and Afro-Cuban music called today Latin-Jazz. In January of 1992, he started his own Latin Jazz format show "Essence and Rhythm" as producer and host, which is still on the air at 90.3 fm WHCR Harlem Community Radio, every Saturday from 11am - 3pm. Also works as a substitute host at WBAI 99.3 FM Pacifica Radio show "New World Gallery". 2339 Bruner Ave. Bronx N.Y. 10469 [email protected] 917-859-9138 Nelson Rodríguez

A former Latin-jazz critic for The Washington Post, in March, 2012, I begin season three of my Latin-jazz concert/lecture series for the Smithsonian Institution, Metro Mambo. Nancy Alonso Salsa Dura 8pm - 10pm Since 1999, native New Yorker Nancy Alonso's program has picked up where the 'Classic Edition' leaves off, focusing on Salsa Dura from the late 1960s through today. Her typical playlist ranges from Eddie Palmieri, Willie Colon, Fania All-Stars, and Tito Puente. Tony Regusters & Zezeh

Sounds of Brazil 10pm - midnight Brazilian music - past and present, fusion and folkloric. With combined skills and expertise - Zezeh, a highly respected samba school dancer and instructor; Tony a nationally known television producer and filmmaker (his latest, 'Obama in Ghana') - make for an engrossing weekly exploration of this rich heritage on a number of levels. Originating on the commercial DC station WHUR in the mid-1980s, the Latin Flavor segment was brought to public jazz station WPFW in the early 1990s by its creator - DC concert promoter and broadcaster Hector Corporan.
