Concierto

Por eso hablamos de Tomatito, un guitarrista que lo ha hecho todo, que consiguió el éxito internacional y el respeto de todos acompañando al que ha sido y aún hoy es la auténtica “Leyenda del flamenco” la voz irrepetible que marcó un hito en la historia de la música, Camarón. Para después de 15 años reinventarse como guitarrista solista. Pero Tomatito, no solo explora el mundo del flamenco, el del jazz, también entra en ese mundo tan complejo y alejado del flamenco como es el mundo sinfónico, y lo hace con una obra magna, “Sonanta Suite”, obra compuesta por Tomatito e interpretada por la Orquesta Nacional de España y Tomatito bajo la batuta de Josep Pons y con la que ganó su tercer premio Latin Grammy en 2013. No olvidemos que en total Tomatito lleva ganados 6 premios Latin Grammy en tres categorías diferentes (Flamenco, Jazz y Música Clásica).

There have been very few jazz harpists in history and Dorothy Ashby was one of the greats. Somehow she was able to play credible bebop on her instrument. As a pianist she studied at Wayne State University, and in 1952 she switched to harp. Within two years, Ashby was gigging in jazz, and in 1956 she made her first recording as a leader. Between 1956-1970, she led ten albums for such labels as Savoy, Prestige, New Jazz, Argo, Jazzland, Atlantic, and Cadet, guested on many records, and was firmly established as a top studio and session player. She moved to the West Coast in the 1970s and was active up until her death.

Originally recorded for the Japanese East Wind label, this Lp features the great Brazilian guitarist Laurindo Almeida on a peaceful and inwardly passionate unaccompanied set of music. There are medleys from "Black Orpheus" and Gershwin, four standards (including "Holiday For Strings"), one original and the 9 1/2 minute title cut. Almeida's classically-oriented guitar sounds beautiful throughout.
