CARLOS AVERHOFF, JR. CD RELEASE w/Greg Osby-alto saxophone, Aruan Ortiz-piano, Francisco Mela-drums, John Lockwood-bass
CD RELEASE NEW CD IRESI
Cuban saxophonist Carlos Averhoff Jr first solo album entitled iRESI is the epitome of his quest to define his sound and penmanship. With a very distinctive approach, Carlos masterfully weaves into his compositions the most sublime, yet raw Jazz renderings, with the infectious rhythms of his native Cuba. Featuring acclaimed artists Greg Osby on alto, Aruan Ortiz on piano, Francisco Mela on drums, and John Lockwood on bass, the album is an amalgam of polyrhythms and savory melodies; rich both culturally and musically. An honor's graduate of Berklee and New England Conservatory of Music, Carlos's music is emblematic of his life experiences, that of a contemporary Cuban musician influenced by his idolatry for Jazz, yet deeply rooted in traditions of his homeland....
