Conrad Herwig: Sketches of Spain Y Mas

Read "Sketches of Spain Y Mas" reviewed by Mark Corroto

by Mark Corroto

Conrad Herwig's nonet explores the Latin side of jazz, and his band mines the fun (party) side as well. The Afro-Cuban/Afro-Caribbean component that makes up the art we call jazz has always been the party side. Following up on the trombonist's recordings Another Kind Of Blue: The Latin Side of Miles Davis (2005), The ...

Conrad Herwig/Brian Lynch: Que Viva Coltrane

Read "Que Viva Coltrane" reviewed by C. Andrew Hovan

by C. Andrew Hovan

He's a veteran of the bands of Mario Bauz, Paquito D'Rivera and Eddie Palmieri, and his 1998 ...
