LA RECENSIONE

An album entirely dedicated to the music of Horace Silver and why? The reasons are very simple, Horace's influence on our artist's career and then both being Cape Verdean, who, even in different ways, blended this heritage with jazz. A passionate, authentic, and respectful tribute that includes 6 Silver tracks, two unreleased ones dedicated to him, and three tracks already published in previous albums for a warm and enveloping listening experience. She with a very distinctive voice, one of the most interesting of the new generation of so-called world music with Billie Holiday, Nina Simone, and Cesária Évora smiling from the back of the room. A mix of sounds between Latin, Cape Verdean, and jazz with oriental sprinkles.
