about

Puerto Padre: Tributo a Emiliano Salvador This 2000 big band date re-imagines many of Salvador’s most famous compositions through the pen of arranger Juan Manuel Ceruto and the performances of several Cuban jazz icons. Ceruto brings Salvador’s compositions into a contemporary setting, maintaining their initial integrity while adding slick arrangements and modern performance concepts. In some ways the arrangements lean more towards the refined aesthetics of modern Cuban timba than the rougher exploratory nature of 1970s Cuban jazz, but if offers an opportunity to see the songs through different eyes. Numerous major names in the current Cuban jazz scene jumped at the opportunity to recognize Salvador’s influence on the music; saxophonist German Velazco, trombonist Juan Pablo Torres, vocalist Issac Delgado, bassist Roberto Riberón, drummer Raúl Pineda, and conguero Tata Güines all participate in this heavy session. Several pianists, including Tony Pérez, Hernán López Nussa, and Chucho Valdés, show the lineage created by Salvador’s work with their creative performances. The album contains an overwhelming amount of energy that remembers Salvador’s legacy and then looks through it, keeping the sound firmly planted in modern Cuban jazz.uan Manuel Ceruto worked in Music Production on the movie El Benny.
