Latinalma

0 - Default Title
Description
Jean-Pierre Mas has always had a Latin soul, the Latinalma that provides the title of this brand-new album. Moreover, it is quite illuminating that the word alma has the same meaning ( soul ) in Spanish and Portuguese. A great melodist, Jean-Pierre pays particular attention to music that sings and to silence, deeming it important to not only play the notes, but also what exists between them. On Latinalma, produced by Jean-Jacques Pussiau, Jean-Pierre makes a veritable declaration of love to Latin America as a whole. The pianist wrote practically all the numbers himself, with the exception of three compositions by Cartola, Antonio Carlos Jobim, and Ariel Ramrez. For this Latin immersion, Jean-Pierre has brought together two acquaintances: Juan Jos Mosalini, the Argentinean legend of the bandoneon, and Pierre Barouh, who had welcomed him on his Saravah label. Two singers were also invited to share this tribute to Latin America: Sheyla Costa, a Brazilian claiming Caetano Veloso and Janis Joplin as influences, and Evita Delgado, a Venezuelan who learned the ropes in musical revues.
