Saxophonist/composer
Paul Carlon presents a “Latin-side-of” reimagining of Billy Strayhorn's
works on what would be the iconic composer's 98th birthday. Carlon's CD on Zoho Music, La Rumba is a Lovesome Thing, takes a whimsical look at an alternate reality wherein Billy grew up a rumbero on
the streets of Havana. With a mix of Afro-Cuban guaguancó, mambo, batá,
bolero, Puerto Rican bomba, and Argentinian zamba, the album tears
through ten Strayhorn gems utilizing Paul's working ensemble as well as
guest percussionists Pedrito Martinez, Chembo Corniel, and Obanilu Ire.
This
show will feature husky-voiced chanteuse Christelle Durandy, tresero
Benjamin Lapidus, and conguero Paulo Stagnaro, as well as some brand new
arrangements Paul has been working on since the release of La Rumba is a Lovesome Thing.
