Daniel Diaz Trio Music

http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/danieldiaz2

An acoustic Bass Guitar providing bass lines and all harmonic support. A much unusual customized drum-set used as the groove keeper as well as a second soloist. Singing on top of it, a world class woodwind soloist with a huge array of styles and sounds in his palette.

The trio started in March 2004 with a brief concert in Paris. After that the decision of making a CD was a logical movement, because of the wonderful interplay and understanding between Daniel Díaz, Javier Estrella and Bobby Rangell

The all-acoustic sound and the wildly assorted song list gives as result a varied yet coherent album, with a beautiful mood and a strong personality. Diaz/Rangell/Estrella's live set is a warm, passionate and beautiful blend of improvisation and astonishing interplay between this three soloists and selected gorgeous pop-oriented songs and jazz standards. Sound, melody and harmony are an important part of this trio's "avant-propos", as much as high quality solos and deep grooves.

They performed live supporting the release of their first CD during 2005/2006, in France (Paris, Prades, Epinal, Boulogne, Beauvais) and Italy (Toscana) in jazz clubs, classical festivals.

During live performances the Trio might play a wide open song list including pieces from the CD and other personal readings of standards by: Randy Newman, Luis A. Spinetta, Cuchi Leguizamon, Chico Buarque, Jimi Hendrix, Mariano Mores, Pedro Laurentz, Charles Aznavour, Egberto Gismonti, Gilberto Gil, Cesar Portillo de la Cruz, Horace Silver, among others.
