Providencia

Providencia

Danilo Perez' debut on Mack Ave Records is deeply anticipated by the critical community and while that level of near-academic excitement exists, it is vital to remember that this music is truly moving on visceral, physical and emotional planes. In a nutshell - and from the artist himself - Providencia crosses streams of jazz, classical and Latin American folk music, which Perez refers to as 'hearing music in three dimensions.' The title track itself is buoyed by pulsating Latin rhythms and an enticing vocalizes foray. While there is no doubt that talent and technique abound on this record - in Danilo's facile fingers and players - a great heart also resides in the compositions and performances. The birth of his daughters and his ongoing commitment to education and social change through music spark his desire to make music that matters - music for all to enjoy and hopefully draw inspiration from its vivacity. 'Daniela's Chronicles' is part of an ongoing symphony he's writing for his daughter and 'Cobilla' is a title she contributed to one of the CD's tunes, a challenging yet playful exploration. This is well worth the 25 years Danilo claims it took for him to create this exemplary music - only you have to set aside an hour to partake in its fruits.
