Latin Jazz Ensemble

In order to understand what I have learned about Latin Jazz in Music 103 class, I have to experience and listen to Latin jazz at a school-sponsored Latin Jazz Ensemble concert, which was held in the Philips Hall Theatre, on Saturday, May 1, 2004.

The first song they were playing was “Tema, El Punto”, which was a mambo and was composed by Jeff Fuller. The solos were played by trumpet 2 and trombone 2.

The concert started around 5:05 p.

From all the songs that were preformed, I liked the last song, “Canto Lucumi”, because it was nice with a completely different style and sounded romantic. The last song was “Canto Lucumi”, which was a bembe or a tempo and was composed by Michael Mossman. If there was another chance for me to go to this concert again, I might not go because Jazz music is not for me and because of my love for Rock & Roll. The concert was played for one hour.

The fourth song was “Machito’s Blues”, which was a cha cha and was composed by Oscar Hernandez.
