Latin Music Legends Cándido Camero and Graciela, with Special Guest, Carlos "Patato" Valdés at Blue Note Monday, Ap   
04/18/2004 11:23AM
Contributed by: ARomero

Events[image1_left](PRWEB) - Latin music legends Cándido Camero and Graciela are two of the last survivors of the Cubop movement of the late '40's, which fused Cuban rhythms with big band Jazz. Together these masters of the art bring a unique style and easy camaraderie to this new recording, highlighted by Graciela's call-and-response interplay with the band and Cándido's subtle wizardry on the conga drums. What you have is inolvidable, unforgettable.

Catch them live in a very rare appearance to launch their first CD (Inolvidable, Chesky Records) together at New York City's Blue Note, 131 West 3rd Street on Monday, April 26 at 8 pm and 10 pm. Call (212) 475-0049 or visit www.bluenotejazz.com.

Long before Celia Cruz was anointed the Queen of Salsa, Graciela was the First Lady of Afro-Cuban song. She is best known as the lead vocalist for Machito and his Afro-Cuban Jazz Orchestra from 1943 through the '70's. 

Cándido has collaborated with almost all of the great jazz masters, including Clark Terry, Dinah Washington, Charlie Parker, Duke Ellington, Lionel Hampton, Mongo Santamaria, Buddy Rich, Dizzy Gillespie and Tito Puente.  

An ensemble of the most exciting Latin Jazz talent including Nicky Marrero, Eddie Peralta, Sonny Bravo and Nelson Gonzalez will join this unforgettable duo.
