From http://www.michelcamilo.com/albums/live.html:
“There’s a very high level of communication, & at the same time, a very high level of risk in all the improvisational moments. There’s always that question of ‘How are we going to get out of this one?’ There are really moments like that in there, & I’m so glad they were captured for posterity.” – Michel Camilo, from the liner notes
Hailed by jazz & classical connoisseurs alike, piano virtuoso Michel Camilo is also 1 of the most prominent figures in Latin jazz. In a recording career that spans nearly 2 decades, Live at the Blue Note is Camilo’s 1st live album & his 1st recording with a Cuban rhythm section. Released on August 26, 2003, this 2-CD set offers a mix of mostly Camilo compositions, played with gusto by bassist Charles Flores & Camilo’s longtime drummer Horacio “El Negro” Hernandez.
Recorded at the Blue Note on March 19-22, 2003, Camilo’s 2nd Telarc disc includes a batch of new tunes that hadn’t been performed live until the week-long engagement began. “I write pretty nuanced charts,” the pianist/composer says. “We do extended versions of the songs. We get into it & let ourselves go. We want to get that energy out there.”
The results are stunning – impressively so in pieces such as “Cocowalk,” the spirited opening track, & “Why Not!”, one of Camilo’s signature tunes. Song after song, Live at the Blue Note dazzles as 16 Camilo originals join 2 well-chosen covers (Chuck Rio’s “Tequila,” & a medley of “Happy Birthday” & Kenny Dorham’s “Blue Bossa”). The album glides between understated soulfulness (“Two of a Kind,” “The Magic in You,” “Twilight Glow” & “Silent Talk”) & driving power (“Dichotomy,” “This Way Out,” “At Night” & “See You Later”).
Boasting “lightning-quick virtuosity & deep-rooted soul” (NY Newsday), Dominican-born Michel Camilo is 1 of the most riveting performers in jazz today – as immortalized by his blazing performance in the film Calle 54. An innovator of the highest order, Camilo regards himself as a Renaissance man, & for good reason. Although a jazz player 1st & foremost, he’s clearly not afraid of developing a reputation as 1 who breaks the rules.
Camilo is equally renowned as a composer, & artists ranging from Dizzy Gillespie to The Manhattan Transfer have performed his works. His diverse resume includes performances with symphony orchestras, compositions for film, & collaborative projects with musicians like Paquito D’Rivera & pianists Katia & Marielle Labeque. Spain, Camilo’s 2000 Verve release with flamenco guitarist Tomatito, won Best Latin Jazz Album in the 1st Latin Grammy Awards.
As Billboard wrote of Triangulo (CD-83549), his critically acclaimed 2002 Telarc debut: “Camilo’s pianism is remarkable, not only where technique is concerned, but moreover, for the range & beauty of his sound.” In April 2003, Camilo was appointed Herb Alpert Visiting Professor at Berklee College of Music in Boston. Earlier this year, Triangulo, which featured Anthony Jackson on bass & Hernandez on drums, was nominated for Best Jazz Instrumental Album at the Grammy Awards & Best Latin Jazz Album at the Billboard Latin Music Awards.
Michel Camilo’s Live at the Blue Note is another superb display from a remarkable artist at the peak of his powers.
