Paquito D'Rivera - Mariel
Review by Ioan Popovici
Mariel is a vibrant and engaging album by renowned jazz musician Paquito D'Rivera. Released in 2004, the album features a mix of original compositions and traditional Cuban music, showcasing D'Rivera's virtuosity on clarinet and saxophone.
From the opening track, "Song for Maura," D'Rivera's playing is electrifying, with his nimble fingers dancing across the keys and his soulful tone imbuing the music with a sense of longing and passion. Other standout tracks include "Con Alma," a lively Latin jazz number that showcases D'Rivera's improvisational skills, and "Mariel," a hauntingly beautiful ballad that pays tribute to the Cuban port city where many refugees fled in the 1980s.
Throughout the album, D'Rivera is joined by a talented ensemble of musicians, including pianist Alon Yavnai, bassist Oscar Stagnaro, and drummer Mark Walker. Together, they create a rich and dynamic sound that is both contemporary and deeply rooted in Cuban music traditions.
