Alfredo Rodriguez - Collection '1993-2016

Tracks list

A relatively early member of a movement of Cuban jazz players into New York,
Alfredo Rodriguez was born near Havana in 1936, where he mainly trained in
classical music and French. In 1960, he moved to Manhattan, where he spent some
time studying jazz under Albert Dailey and Bill Evans, and then moved into
roughly a decade of playing with various Caribbean acts in the big city. After a
brief stint in Miami in the early 70s, he began working as a session player and
club performer in New York with notable success, recorded best on the 1976 album
Ready for Freddie with Patato Valdes. Rodriguez moved to Paris in 1985, working
as a bandleader in a market less saturated with Cuban jazz and gaining his due
respect as a pianist. From that point, his excursions into major-release
recordings have met with relative success, from the acclaimed Cuba Linda
sessions to early work with ¡Cubanismo! to the meeting of exiled Cuban
masters Los Originales. Most recently, hes begun work within Europe with a group
of friends from various Cuban groups calling themselves los Acerekó, and
dazzling European audiences with heavy doses of Cuban jazz. In 2003 Cuban Jazz
was released on Naxos World, marking the first recording with los Acerekó.
