AYV 36 [8427328883368] “While she might be considered a newcomer to mainstream music, the striking dark horse [Grammy] winner with that trademark hairdo has been playing since she was just 5 years old. She said she owes her journey, taking her from small clubs in Portland to the stage at the White House, to the ‘incredible community and family of musicians that I am so blessed to be a part of.’”

ETHIOPIQUES IN NEW YORK TIMES

BUD 829642 [723723382528] “Originally recorded in the 1960s and 1970s, [these] discs feature the keyboard player and arranger Mulatu Astatke, the singer Mahmoud Ahmed, and others who emerged from military and police bands during the reign of the emperor Haile Selassie. The music, a bit of which Jim Jarmusch featured in his 2005 film Broken Flowers, shows the influence of jazz, rhythm and blues, and Latin music, but also has harmonies, grooves, and orchestrations that seem almost otherworldly. ‘Ethiopiques was huge, very influential, transformational even,’ said Jonathan Poneman, a founder of Sub Pop. ‘Not only was it great stuff, but it was put out in a way that was high quality, that looked good and was engaging. It was a combination of the exotic and the familiar, the kind of tasteful, definitive assessment of a place and time in global culture that anybody would love to be able to do.’”

ENJ 9563 [063757956327] “Renaud Garcia-Fons is known among jazz fans as an ear-popping virtuoso of the acoustic bass. The sounds he conjures from his five-string instrument have won him admirers around the world. But for his latest project, the Spanish-French musician says he wanted to concentrate on composition— specifically the sounds of the Mediterranean—while searching for a bridge between the music of the East and the West.”

ALLEGRO congratulates our 2010 53 rd annual grammy award winners BEST NEW ARTIST On Sunday February 13, on what is called “Music’s Biggest Night,” Portland native and jazz phenom Esperanza Spalding shocked the world by winning the Grammy Award for “Best New Artist.” This was the first time a jazz artist had been a nominee, and was Esperanza’s first Grammy. Indispensable for every fan, this debut release collector’s item showcases the star just as her career was just beginning to explode. “Subtle, sophisticated, and rhythmically seductive, Junjo is a sparkling debut for Esperanza Spalding.” — Vibe “She leads, she scats, she plays a mean bass.” — Ben Ratliff, New York Times “Soulful songs and masterful bass playing have made Esperanza a rising star in the jazz world.” — People

BEST JAZZ INSTRUMENTAL ALBUM On the stunning sequel to Moody 4A, James Moody played as well at age 85 as he ever had. Featuring pianist Kenny Barron, this album from the Jazz Journalists Association’s Lifetime Achievement Award winner is possibly the best work of his career. Mr. Moody passed away on December 9, 2010 at the age of 85, but his contribution to music will live on. He was truly one of the great artists in jazz. “Moody’s first Grammy win was long overdue.” — Los Angeles Times “An extraordinary improviser, he’s assimilated the ascetic, blunt language of 1960’s modalism into the slippery, elliptical phrasing of 1940’s bebop.” — New York Times “Moody and his superb quartet … lend their expert skills to original material, jazz classics, and Great American Songbook fare.” — All About Jazz

This unique triple bill revue has helped introduce bright new stars such as Ana Popovic and Joanne Shaw Taylor to an international audience. Following in their footsteps on the 2011 tour is a trio of dynamic, up-and-coming blues talents: Dani Wilde, Cassie Taylor, and Samantha Fish. • All blues radio & press will be serviced. • Ads with Blues Revue. Dani Wilde (UK) sings with the old-school fervor of Aretha Franklin, but also takes a cue from contemporaries like Duffy and Joss Stone. Her newest album Shine, a collaboration with renowned producer Mike Vernon, shows off new levels of maturity as a singer, songwriter, and guitarist. Says Paul Jones of BBC Radio 2: “She sings with more conviction and passion than old legends from the Mississippi Delta.” At the tender age of 21, Samantha Fish (US) is already hot property on the live music scene in and around her hometown of Kansas City, Missouri. Her high-heeled, rock-edged performances have won her a loyal local following and carried her to venues like Rosa’s Lounge in Chicago, where she opened eyes during the 2010 Chicago Blues Festival. Multi-instrumentalist Cassie Taylor (US) has appeared on eight critically acclaimed albums by her father, Otis Taylor, and was a featured vocalist on Gary Moore’s 2008 release Bad For You Baby. Still in her early 20s, Cassie has been hailed for her commanding stage presence and “heavenly” voice (Boston Globe). Her music ranges from heart-wrenching ballads to harddriving blues and doesn’t shy away from topical subject matter!

Joséphine Baker Voilà Paris Includes many tunes on CD for the very first time! This compilation contains songs from a concept album recorded in the late 1950s, relating the love story between iconic American-born Joséphine Baker and Paris, the city that adopted and applauded her! Some 35 years after her death, Baker still fascinates with her story of a young, unknown black American performer who conquered Paris, then all of France, and then the European continent before taking on the world. The songs are mainly in French, but the timeless melodies will be familiar to all.

• Yoruba Andabo, made up of 17 artists including singers, percussionists, and dancers, professionally performs the most important genres of both religious and profane music within the African roots of Cuban culture. • Among the hierarchies of Afro-Cuban music, Yoruba Andabo enjoys a special sovereignty both inside and outside of Cuba. The first seed that gave life to this group was sown in 1961 at the docks of Havana, the birthplace of legendary rumberos. The group’s name combines two words: “Yoruba,” the great southern motherland of African nations and cultures, and “Andabo,” which in the Carabalí language means “friend,” “follower,” or “admirer.” • Through their work, the group has imposed a distinctive hallmark. Even more challenging, they have found style in purity. The goal that drives the efforts of Yoruba Andabo is the libertarian incorporation of everything that surrounds, adorns, and approximates tradition, absent of vice or purist digressions. • No other group could have achieved such brilliance and cohesion in presenting this view of our singable and danceable physiognomy: chants, devotion, dance, and the beauty of life. Here, sensual rumba, guaguancó, toque de santo, Abakuá and Congolese chants, and communication with the dead converge, signifying the pieces of history of a country forged in a melting pot of races and encounters with other cultures.

• If Ry Cooder ever picked up an oud, he’d sound a lot like Adel Salameh! • Salameh, who has been described as the “ambassador of Arab music in the West,” is surely one of the world’s finest oud players. Born in Nablus, Palestine, he immigrated to Europe in 1990 and quickly established a reputation as one of the finest performers on the instrument. • Has performed in more than 30 countries including Japan, Australia, Singapore, Hong Kong, South Africa, and numerous countries in North Africa and Europe. • A proud Palestinian, Adel sees no contradiction in performing alongside Israeli musicians. For him, it’s a very natural, unselfconscious thing: one’s message should never overshadow the actual music being made. By turns melancholic, intense, and uplifting, this music is forever compelling.

Bruno Girard & Denis Cuniot Yat: Mir Geyen Many things brought Bruno Girard to Yiddish music: reminiscences of German, romantic, and family ties in Alsace; a deep feeling of belonging to Europe; and a strong attraction to the culture, literature, poetry, and history of Central and Eastern Europe. This language came about among the Jewish communities established along the Rhine basin and then spread throughout Europe. Passed on by women and based on Middle-Age German mixed with Hebrew, Slavic, and more, the language bore witness to the lives of the Jewish people.
