  • PRESS RELEASE Jazz the Week up with Latin American Music From
    PRESS RELEASE FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Date: 14 June 2019 Jazz the Week Up with Latin American Music from Michel Camilo and Ernest Martinez Izquierdo Swire Denim Series: Jazz with Michel Camilo (14 & 15 June) [14 June 2019, Hong Kong] The Hong Kong Philharmonic Orchestra (HK Phil) is excited to have Dominican jazz pianist and composer Michel Camilo and his Grammy-award winning partner, conductor Ernest Martinez Izquierdo, bringing a jazzy evening to the Hong Kong audience. In this Latin jazz concert, Michel Camilo’s Piano Concerto no.1 will be presented in Hong Kong for the first time together with Gershwin’s all-time favourite Rhapsody in Blue at the Hong Kong City Hall Concert Hall on 14 & 15 June. Underpinning the evening is the Hong Kong premiere of Michel Camilo’s Piano Concerto no.1. The three-part fantasia showcases Camilo’s superhuman keyboard virtuosity with a tropical tint. The work encompasses traditions from his own background while echoing early 20th composers such as Stravinsky and Copland. Argentinean composer Ginastera is acclaimed for infusing national elements with modernism. Inspired by the life on the ranches in Argentina, the Estancia Suite has colourful orchestration and bold harmonies. Combined with a large complement of percussion instruments, conductor Ernest Martinez Izquierdo invites you on a dancing journey to Argentina. “While Camilo plays 'the ink' of Gershwin's scores [Rhapsody in Blue], he embellishes the works with grooves and accents.” --- Billboard The night will be concluded by the pulsating Rhapsody in Blue, Gershwin’s most popular concert work. With the trademark glissando opening by the clarinet, be ready to swing with Camilo’s groovy playing.

Heller, PhD Hybridity and Identity in the Pan-American Jazz Piano Tradition William D. Scott, PhD University of Pittsburgh, 2019 The term Latin jazz has often been employed by record labels, critics, and musicians alike to denote idioms ranging from Afro-Cuban music, to Brazilian samba and bossa nova, and more broadly to Latin American fusions with jazz. While many of these genres have coexisted under the Latin jazz heading in one manifestation or another, Panamanian pianist Danilo Pérez uses the expression “Pan-American jazz” to account for both the Afro-Cuban jazz tradition and non-Cuban Latin American fusions with jazz. Throughout this dissertation, I unpack the notion of Pan-American jazz from a variety of theoretical perspectives including Latinx identity discourse, transcription and musical analysis, and hybridity theory.

  • Sammy Figueroa Full
    Sammy Figueroa has long been regarded as one of the world’s great musicians. As a much-admired percussionist he provided the rhythmical framework for hundreds of hits and countless recordings. Well-known for his versatility and professionalism, he is equally comfortable in a multitude of styles, from R & B to rock to pop to electronic to bebop to Latin to Brazilian to New Age. But Sammy is much more than a mere accompanist: when Sammy plays percussion he tells a story, taking the listener on a journey, and amazing audiences with both his flamboyant technique and his subtle nuance and phrasing. Sammy Figueroa is now considered to be the most likely candidate to inherit the mantles of Mongo Santamaria and Ray Barretto as one of the world’s great congueros. Sammy Figueroa was born in the Bronx, New York, the son of the well-known romantic singer Charlie Figueroa. His first professional experience came at the age of 18, while attending the University of Puerto Rico, with the band of bassist Bobby Valentin. During this time he co-founded the innovative Brazilian/Latin group Raices, which broke ground for many of today’s fusion bands. Raices was signed to a contract with Atlantic Records and Sammy returned to New York, where he was discovered by the great flautist Herbie Mann. Sammy immediately became one of the music world’s hottest players and within a year he had appeared with John McLaughlin, the Brecker Brothers and many of the world’s most famous pop artists. Since then, in a career spanning over thirty years, Sammy has played with a

Armed with his magical flute, Maraca is accompanied by an all-star cast drawn from the world of Latin jazz: Horacio “El Negro” Hernández (drums), Giovanni Hidalgo (congas, timbal, batá), David Sánchez (sax), Hugh Fraser (trombone), Harold López-Nussa (piano), Feliciano Arango (bass), Julio Padrón Cintron Band Live (trumpet), Yusef Díaz (keyboards), Enrique Lazaga (güiro), and Human Nature Sayaka (violin), plus the participation of Orquesta de Cámara de La Habana (Havana Chamber Windows Media Orchestra). Maraca revisits classics such as Camerata en Guaguancó (a Guido López-Gavilán Quicktime composition), Serenata Cubana (an Ignacio Cervantes piece), and the Latin jazz anthem Manteca hereby offering one of the best contemporary version of this Pozo/Gillispie classic, performed by a quartet comprised of congas, drums, bass, and flute. As a matter of fact, Vanelis Maraca shines on his flutes throughout most of this concert, as well as via his original scores, Como Lo Extraño including the standouts Afro, Danzón Siglo XXI, and Nueva Era, but it’s his vision of this unique Windows Media production that truly sets him apart from many of his peers.

  • Manny Oquendo
    Manny Oquendo Manny Oquendo (January 1, 1931 – March 25, 2009) was a percussionist of Puerto Rican ancestry. His main instruments were bongós and timbales. [See: “Timbales Demonstration” (Manny Oquendo) and “The Martillo [Bongo] Pattern” (Manny Oquendo) Oquendo grew up in New York City and began studying percussion in 1945. He worked in the bands of tropical and Latin music ensembles such as Carlos Valero, Luis del Campo, Juan “El Boy” Torres, Luciano “Chano” Pozo, José Budet, Juanito Sanabria, Marcelino Guerra, José Curbelo, and Pupi Campo. In 1950, he became the bongó player for Tito Puente. Following this he played with Tito Rodríquez in 1954 and Vicentico Valdés in 1955. He worked freelance in New York before joining Eddie Palmieri’s Conjunto La Perfecta in 1962, where he helped develop the New York style of the mozambique rhythm. He co-led Conjunto Libre (later simply Libre) with bassist Andy González from 1974 and had a worldwide hit with “Little Sunflower” in 1983. Oquendo’s timbales solos were famous for their tastefully sparse, straight forward “típico” phrasing. The following five measure excerpt is from a timbales solo by Oquendo on “Mambo.” The clave pattern is written above for reference. Notice how the passage begins and ends by coinciding with the strokes of clave. Excerpt from timbales solo by Manny Oquendo, “Mambo” (1974). Incorporation of rumba quinto vocabulary Oquendo’s solos also incorporated the rhythmic language of the folkloric quinto, the lead drum of rumba. The short excerpt below is from a timbales solo by Manny Oquendo on “Cuba Linda” (1975). This is a quinto crossing phrase that groups the regular pulses in sets of three.

    NEW RELEASE O N I N T U I T I O N R E C O R D S R E C E I V E D 4 G R A M M Y N O M I N A T I O N S OREGON’s latest project, Oregon In Moscow, is a double CD with the Moscow Tchaikovsky Symphony Orchestra, and the group’s recorded debut of their orchestral repertoire—a prodigious body of work that has been developing over the life of the band, but never documented. In the thirty-year history of OREGON, there has always existed a strong kinship to orchestral music. The use of the double reeds alone has given the quartet an identity and expansive sound associated with the symphonic orchestra. This association isn’t confined only to their use of many orchestral instruments, but applies also to the composition and presentation of the music, including the careful attention to details such as articulation, dynamics, phrasing and tone production derived from their respective classical studies. Chief composer Ralph Towner explains, “OREGON came together as a group in New York City in 1970, and from the outset it was clear that our unusual instrumentation and collective musical experience invited a different approach to composition and improvisation. The jazz tradition of improvisation usually consists of the soloists taking turns improvising on the song’s harmonic structure, recycling the chord progressions and returning to the original melody only on the last repeat of the cycle. While still using and honoring this tradition, we began composing longer, more sectional forms that allowed each soloist to improvise on different material within the context of a single piece.
