Trinidad
Trinidadian trumpet phenom, Etienne Charles, launches his brand new CD release ‘Folklore‘ from Tuesday, July 21 through 25 at Dizzy’s Club Cola, the bamboo lined ‘intimate room‘ that presides five stories above Central Park at the Home of Jazz at Lincoln Center, Broadway at 60th Street.
The eleven tracks of the Folklore CD will take the listener on a “dramatic musical journey into the mysterious, spiritual and traditional folktales of the Caribbean,” shouts the promo.
Charles follows blind pianist Marcus Roberts whose run at the Club also starts Tuesday 21, but overshoots Charles’ by one day. The Marcus Roberts Trio is Rodney Jordan on bass, the toddler of the Marsalis clan, Jason, behind the drum kit, and Roberts.
