Sebastian Cruz and the Cheap Landscape Trio invited to Bogotá’s Jazz al Parque 2010

Jazz al Parque is a great yearly outdoors jazz fest in Bogotá, Colombia. I have wanted for so long to play there, and this year I am going with an amazing band featuring Stomu Takeishi on bass and Ted Poor on drums. Concert will be September 11 at Parque Country Club.

Sam Sadigursky – El Hombre

Download El Hombre (Poem by William Carlos Williams, music by Sam Sadigursky)

This is a Colombian rhtyhm (currulao) and Sam invited me to play all percussion and guitars on this track of his lovely words project iii – miniatures. Here’s the poem:

EL HOMBRE

It's a strange courage you give me ancient star:
Shine alone in the sunrise toward which you lend no part!
William Carlos Williams

Mirándote
Amanece

Sale media esfera roja en llamas
Por tu boca llamas mi nombre

Anochece

Sale entera blanca enorme y como
Me provoca tu nombre en mi boca

Acuéstate
Acuéstame
