Neff Irizarry A Night of Contemporary Latin Jazz Guitar

Ilgi gaidītā Irizarry un Fabricius ierašanās iezīmē jaunu laikmetu latīndžeza mūzikā, kāds nav dzirdēts kopš leģendārajām Kala Tjaderes un Tito Puente grupām. Turpinot 2023. gada februāra turneju Baltijas valstīs, Nefs un viņa Baltijas zvaigžņu grupa ar Martinu Fabriciusu pie vibrofona piedāvās progresīvā latīņdžeza vakaru, kas piesātināts ar puertorikāņu "Sabor" un ziemeļnieciski vēso "Sisu". "Neff Irizarry ir uzsācis ceļu, ko mūsdienu džezā un, protams, mūsdienu latīņdžezā ir mērojuši tikai daži ģitāristi! Izpildīt visus montunos, guajeos, nepieciešamās harmonizācijas, kā arī solēt ar skaidrību un degsmi ir liels uzdevums, bet Nefs noteikti ir tam gatavs." -Steve Khan, The Voice of Latin Jazz Guitar Leģendārais Grammy nominētais ģitārists

The long awaited arrival of Irizarry and Fabricius marks a new era in Latin Jazz that hasn’t been heard since the legendary groups of Cal Tjader and Tito Puente. Continuing from their February 2023 tour of the Baltics, Neff and his all-star Baltic group featuring Martin Fabricius on vibraphone will present an action packed night of progressive Latin jazz steaming with Puerto Rican “Sabor” and a Nordic cool called “Sisu.” “Neff Irizarry has embarked down a path traveled by few guitarists in contemporary jazz and certainly contemporary Latin jazz! To execute all the montunos, guajeos, necessary harmonizations, and to solo with clarity and fire is a tall order but Neff is certainly up to the task.” —Steve Khan, The Voice of Latin Jazz Guitar Legendary Grammy-Nominated Guitarist
