The Jazz Voyager

The next destination The Jazz Voyager is looking forward to is one to South America and a new venue for me called Jazz Voyeur Club. Motivated by his two great passions of jazz and photography, Gerardo Cañellas Engel from Mallorca traveled halfway around the world in search of the small clubs that make up the history of jazz. He captured images following the scheme of a voyeur and twenty years produced two jazz voyeur clubs, the first in Palma  de Mallorca and its sister in Buenos Aires. This week I will be traveling to the Argentina club.

I close out the month of travel with what will be an unforgettable evening of music with The Fuse Of Vinicius de Moraes. It’s a commemorative show celebrating the 50 year anniversary of the album La Fusa, recorded in Buenos Aires, Argentina by Vinicius De Moraes, Maria Creuza and Toquinho. Bringing the music alive is Brazilian singer Josi Dias, guitarist Pablo Plebs, pianist Alejo Scalco, bassist Mariano Promet with Sergio Morán on drums.

Located at Posadas 1557, Recoleta / Buenos Aires The cover is 10 euros and their phone number is +34 649 67 75 05.

This is a special year, as we celebrate the 25th Anniversary since the American Jazz Museum opened its doors. Let’s celebrate and empower the community that helps keep jazz alive at 18th & Vine!

About the artist:

The brainchild of pianist and composer Renee Rosnes, Artemis is a powerful ensemble of modern masters. The multinational, multigenerational band was founded in 2017 under the banner of International Women’s Day. Artemis’ performance at the 2018 Newport Jazz Festival was so dynamic, Blue Note Records President Don Was signed the group to the label. Artemis has played on iconic stages like Carnegie Hall, the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, SFJAZZ, and Chicago Orchestra Hall. Each member of the band is a virtuoso player, composer and bandleader and the group’s repertoire reflects each individual’s sound. From original music to mind-bending arrangements of eclectic material, Artemis performs with power, passion, and high-wire intensity.

The group: pianist & music director Renee Rosnes, clarinetist Anat Cohen, tenor saxophonist Melissa Aldana, trumpeter Ingrid Jensen, bassist Noriko Ueda, drummer Allison Miller, and vocalist Cécile McLorin Salvant.
