CD RELEASE SHOW: THE NEW YORK FLAMENCO JAZZ PROJECT
This collective led by guitarist/composer Andreas Arnold will present its new album 'Mosaico'. Recorded over the course of a year between New York and Spain, it features 15 musicians from around the world. The albums material will be performed by a sextet of flamenco and jazz musicians featuring guitar, vocals, flute, harmonica, percussion and dance. Since Miles Davis there have been plenty of efforts of jazz musicians to add a flamenco vibe to their music just as contemporary flamenco became more and more jazz influenced since Paco de Lucia pushed the doors wide open in the 1970s. The New York Flamenco Jazz Project stands by itself: it is a true meeting of flamenco and jazz artists joining up and creating a common ground on which they showcase their creativity, virtuosity and ability to communicate outside their domain while staying true to their roots.

Jose Moreno - percussion, vocals, dance
Petros Klampanis - bass
Maria Toro - flute
