New Music Monday for April 21, 2025 – Jazz 88.3 KCCK
Listen to this week’s playlist on YouTube and Spotify
Born and raised in the vibrant streets of Caracas, Venezuela, Silvano Monasterios is a virtuoso pianist and composer, celebrated for his intricate technique, soulful improvisations, and innovative compositions. Over a career spanning three decades, he’s captivated audiences worldwide, carving a distinctive musical voice that blends harmonic sophistication with fiery Latin rhythms. His new project, “The River,” is a nine-piece ensemble work inspired by the social unrest and protests by the Venezuelan people in 2017 manifested by their desire to live in a free and just place.
For more than twenty years as a recording artist, the pianist and composer Hiromi has shifted seamlessly from one spellbinding project to the next. In the process, she’s earned a reputation as one of the most explosive live performers in jazz history and a global ambassador for the art form. Hiromi’s 13th studio album, “Out There,” is the second release with her band SonicWonder. It features French-born fusion virtuoso Hadrien Feraud on bass, the soulful Chicago drummer Gene Coye, and Brooklyn-raised trumpeter Adam O’Farrill, who is part of a dynasty that includes his father and grandfather, Latin jazz titans Arturo and Chico O’Farrill.
Also this week, Sean Nelson’s New London Big Band features never-before-recorded Thad Jones charts written for Harry James on “Don’t Stop Now”; Triology, comprised of three award-winning Canadian musicians—Jodi Proznick on bass, Miles Black on piano and Bill Coon on guitar—are joined by tenor sax legend Scott Hamilton for their new album, “The Slow Road”; and singer and songwriter Lorraine Feather unveils her first release in eight years, “The Green World.”
