Andrea Motis & Joan Chamorro Quintet Live at Jamboree

17€

«I believe that this new CD is one of the most beautiful things I have been able to do in my life: for the musical result, and because it brings together people for whom I feel a profound human and musical admiration, and because I believe that after almost 5 years of working together, it marks the consolidation of Andrea as an artist and a jazz musician.» Joan Chamorro

«Last April, when we were playing these concerts in Jamboree, marked the fourth anniversary of the first recording session that we had done with Joan and Andrea. Since then, we have collaborated regularly and I have been able to witness at first hand their unstoppable growth and maturity. It therefore gives me great satisfaction to introduce this CD to you on our label Swit Records; it is, for me, the best and most jazzy recording so far from these musicians.» Ignasi Terraza

Reviews

Ronald Ferreira – 31 January 2016:

This is a great concert. Andrea is sublime and the quintet backs her up brilliantly with Scott Hamilton adding the extra touch. As I said elsewhere, I have listened to around 200 well known jazz artists on YouTube performing “Moody’s Mood for Love” recorded over the last 60 years but for me Andrea’s version in this concert is the best. She sings the ballads like “I fall in love too easily” with so much feeling. In one cameo of a trumpet solo she sounds like Chet Baker. But why is this the only DVD version? Most of the others albums are CDs only? It’s a pity, I would love to have both versions for all the albums. Just keep the albums (and DVDs) coming, this is great jazz with original arrangements which jazz lovers can relate to. Andrea obviously has great talent and for someone so young, her performance and progress over the last 5 years has been impressive, and she has the luck to be backed up by fine musicians. She is going to occupy a very important place in jazz in the next few years. Barcelona is on the jazz world map.
