Kat Parra: Las Aventuras de Pasion!

Read "Las Aventuras de Pasion!" reviewed by Dan Bilawsky


Kat Parra's voice may be the ultimate manifestation of the entire Latin music diaspora. While countless singers dabble in bossa nova or wander far and wide atop Afro-Cuban grooves, few people tackle the scope of music that Parra takes on. Engaging the totality of the entire Latin spectrum is no easy feat, but she seems willing ...

Wayne Wallace Latin Jazz Quintet: To Hear From There

Read "To Hear From There" reviewed by Bridget A. Arnwine


Trombonist/composer Wayne Wallace and his music could probably be characterized by any number of clichéd phrases, but why use a cliché when the truth will do.

Wayne Wallace Latin Jazz Quintet: To Hear From There

Read "To Hear From There" reviewed by Raul d'Gama Rose


Trombonist Wayne Wallace is one of the most melodic players on his instrument. And although he might inhabit a somewhat narrow range--eschewing the very high register--he is also one of today's most expressive trombonists. His husky tone is one of a kind and gives his playing tremendous character. Moreover, he is one of the few players ...

Wayne Wallace: To Hear From There

Read "To Hear From There" reviewed by Hrayr Attarian


San Francisco-area trombonist Wayne Wallace is known for his Grammy-nominated forays into Afro-Cuban music, and on the surface, To Hear From There is another Latin jazz album.

Kristina: Offshore Echoes

Read "Offshore Echoes" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


Ha un nome da ragazza della porta accanto, Kristina. Sangue indiano, africano e tedesco, la sua voce è rotondeggiante e aggraziata. Non sarà Anita Baker, non sarà esuberante come Dee Dee Bridgewater, caratterizzante come Cassandra Wilson o abbraccerà le quattro ottave di Sarah Jane Morris, ma la nostra Katrina ha una voce limpida e cristallina come ...
