The fourth day of the Cartagena Jazz Festival arrives.
This Saturday, November 10, at the El Batel Auditorium there will be two teachers' teachers: drummer Billy Cobhman and bassist Stanley Clarke.
Two living legends, which have become models for many musicians in the world.
The double program will be opened by Cobhman at 9:30 p.m.
There are localities, at 25 euros.
Master of masters of the battery, the Panamanian-American Billy Cobham was one of the first artists to combine the rhythms of rock with the polyrhythms of jazz and funk;
a musical philosophy in which it merges with two other icons of the battery, Tony Williams and Jack DeJohnette.
The genius Cobham began his professional career at age 18, in 1962, and since then he has played with the first figures of the genre and with legends of pop and rock.
A list that could lead Miles Davis, of which he was a regular contributor, to continue with George Benson, John McLaughlin, Gil Evans, John Scofield, George Duke, Grover Washington, Roberta Flack, Peter Gabriel, James Brown or Quincy Jones.
Cobhman will be the first to appear tomorrow on the stage of the El Batel Auditorium.
Since the 70s he composes and leads his own musical projects.
Dedicated to musical exploration and creative expression, someone wrote that their success results from the union of exact precision and explosive force.
It is one of the batteries that have most influenced the way we play.
He has enriched the technique of jazz drums, has moved it with energy to the field of jazz-rock and has become a model for all the batteries of the world.
After the drums will be the turn of Stanley Clarke, a four-time Grammy Award winner, and undoubtedly one of the most famous acoustic and electric bass players in the world.
In addition, he has the same talent as a composer, performer, composer, orchestra director, arranger, producer and composer of scores.
A true pioneer in jazz and jazz fusion, Clarke is particularly known for his fierce bass prowess and consummate musicality.
Unquestionably, he has achieved the status of "living legend" during his career of more than 40 years as bass virtuoso.
Clarke's creativity has been recognized and rewarded in every conceivable way: gold and platinum records, Grammy awards, Emmy nominations, virtually all existing readers and critics surveys, and more.
He was the first Rolling Stone Jazzman of the Year and the Playboy's Music Award-winning bassist for ten consecutive years.
Clarke was honored with the Lifetime Achievement Award from Bass Player Magazine and is a member of the "Gallery of the Greats" of Guitar Player Magazine.
In 2004 he appeared in Los Angeles magazine as one of the 50 most influential people.
He was honored with the key to the city of Philadelphia, a Ph.D. from the University of the Arts of Philadelphia and got into the cement as a member of 1999 in "Rock Walk" in Hollywood ... At 66 years and 45 after the edition from his debut album as a soloist "Children Of Forever" (1973), the legendary American bassist presents new work, The Message, composed and recorded during the band's last European tour, to whose stable lineup, composed by Cameron Graves on synthesizer, Beka Gochiashvili on acoustic piano and Mike Mitchell on drums, are joined on this record by trumpeter Mark Isham and rapper and beatboxer, Doug E. Fresh.
Tickets can be purchased on the web at the ticket offices of El Batel Auditorium and Nuevo Teatro Circo.
But the day of Saturday 10 will begin at 12:30 pm in the Plaza del Icue with LCD Funk, a group of musicians who joined in 2013 motivated by their shared passion for funk, soul and music of African-American roots.
His proposal is to turn songs known from other styles into pure groove.
