The label's founding concept was \"music that is the next most beautiful thing after silence.\" Its transparent sound, clear tone, and sophisticated, beautiful jacket designs set it apart from other labels and have captivated many fans around the world. It has produced numerous jazz masterpieces such as Keith Jarrett's \"The K?ln Concert\" (1975), Chick Corea's \"Return to Forever\" (1972), and Pat Metheny's \"Bright Size Life\" (1976). In 1984, it expanded its genres and entered the classical music world. ECM has launched the \"ECM New Series,\" which focuses on contemporary music, and has released new works by Arvo P?rt, Gidon Kremer, Heinz Holliger, and others. Eicher, who turned 80 last year, continues to record more than 20 new albums a year, making it one of the most active labels in the pursuit of music. In conjunction with the release of the new series \"ECM Revisits,\" commemorating the 55th anniversary of ECM's founding, the \"ECM in the 21st Century\" series, originally released in 2022, has been repressed. This series introduces the current state of ECM, focusing on artists who are currently at the forefront of the music scene. This is the third ECM release from a Cuban-born, New York-based pianist, released in 2017. That year, he was selected as a Rising Star in the piano category by DownBeat magazine! In this work, which is themed on the music of his Cuban roots, he talks about transculture and tradition, and the complex tapestry (sacred, secular, and ritualistic) of Cuban music. The dynamism of the music, played by a total of 10 musicians including strings, woodwinds, and percussionists, symbolizes the exchange of multiculturalism. At the heart of this work are the responsive piano and the vocals and percussion of Roman Diaz, an indispensable figure when discussing the history of Afro-Cuban music. \u003cpersonnel\u003e Davi Viles (p, marimbula), Roman Diaz (lead vocals, perc), Alison Loggins Hull (piccolo, fl), Lane Moore (cl, b-cl), Adam Cruz (perc), Alex Lipowski (perc), Matthew Gold (perc), Mauricio Herrera (perc), Thomas Morgan (double-b), Uniol Lopez (viola), Christine Chen (violincello), Samuel DiCaprio (violoncello), Melvis Santa (background vocals) Recorded May 27-29, 2016 at Avatar Studios, New York Media reviews and more This is the third ECM release from the Cuban-born, NY-based pianist, released in 2017.
