It has been said that Antonio Carlos Jobim was the George Gershwin of Brazil, and there is a solid ring of truth in that, for both contributed large bodies of songs to the jazz repertoire, both expanded their reach into the concert hall, and both tend to symbolize their countries in the eyes of the rest of the world. With their gracefully urbane, sensuously aching melodies and harmonies, Jobim's songs gave jazz musicians in the 1960s a quiet, strikingly original alternative to their traditional Tin Pan Alley source.
Jobim's roots were always planted firmly in jazz; the records of Gerry Mulligan, Chet Baker, Barney Kessel, and other West Coast jazz musicians made an enormous impact upon him in the 1950s.
Pianist Pablo Cardenas continues to wow audiences here on the West Coast with his brilliant interpretations of some of the world's best jazz pianists.
He is joined this month by:
Rob Johnson bass
León Torres percussion
And guests
$20/$15 adv/students at Mirage Coffee (735 Yates St)
