Calypso Rose Same Boat

Mokomizik Records is proud to present the first-ever reissue of this ultra-rare Latin-Jazz masterpiece. The Fantastic Variety in the Music of Panama - The Winsor Style and Calypso Impressions was privately released in 1961 by Panamanian pianist and songwriter Alonso Wilson De Briano. Little remains known about Alonso, whose work had all but fallen into obscurity. His unique vision and beautiful compositions however are still shining bright in this true gem of a record.

'Chapters of Zdenka' is a collection of songs that I wrote around the same time I was working on my most recent album 'Zdenka 2080'. The first half of the record contains songs that I wrote as a form of therapy, so many of them are like diary entries. They talk about the fear of losing one’s mind and the confusion of having an overactive imagination. Also, the sadness surrounding the conditioning that many females experience and the desire to unlearn this conditioning.

Gil Rose has a special knack for finding music that has somehow slipped through the cracks. Here, he gives us three ballet scores composed for Martha Graham and her company by Carlos Surinach (1915 97). Born in Barcelona and trained in Germany (including seminars with Richard Strauss), Surinach settled in 1950 in the United States, where his flamenco-inflected style appealed to leading choreographers.
