| Mark Weinstein at Cornelia St. Cafe Flautist and composer Mark Weinstein will be performing with his Brazilian Quartet (Mark Weinstein (flutes); Nilson Matta, (bass); Helio Alvez (piano); Rogerio Boccato (drums) at Cornelia Street Cafe in NYC on Wednesday, October 4th in Celebration of his recent Jazzheads Release O Nosso Amor. Mark Weinstein plays world-based jazz and post-bebop, with musicians rooted in Afro-Cuban, Brazilian, African, Jewish and Indian traditions. A Latin jazz innovator, Mark was among the first jazz musicians to record with traditional Cuban rhythm sections. His signature album, Cuban Roots, released in 1967, is a classic recording--with Mark on trombone and Chick Corea on piano--that transformed Latin jazz. His recent recordings include such notables as Cuban pianist Omar Sosa, Brazilian guitarist Romero Lubambo, percussionists Francisco Aguabella, Cyro Baptista and Pedrito Martinez, bassists Santi Debriano, Nilson Mata and Mike Richmond as well as guitarists Jean Paul Bourelly, Vic Juris, Brad Shepik and Ed Cherry and drummers Cindy Blackman, Paulo Braga and Cecil Brooks III. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Jazz News :: home page |
