"Cuban Crosshatching" receives 89.1 Jazz premiere.

If you are searching for fresh new music for 2013, WEMU recommends the new CD “Cuban Crosshatching” by percussionist Arturo Stable.  His 2012 duo disc “Dos Y Mas” with pianist Elio Villafranca was one of the finest recordings of 2012.  Stable continues the path he has forged in his notable career with music of integrity, artistic credibility and exploratory creativity.  We premiered “Cuban Crosshatching” this morning and found that it paired perfectly with “Elemental” by the new regional Latin jazz group, Aguanko.

From his website, Arturo Stable describes “Cuban Crosshatching” as “re-imagining percussion: blending styles and instruments from all over the world into contemporary chamber music aesthetics.   I couldn’t say it any better myself.   Treat yourself to this modern musical odyssey of Latin jazz, provocative percussion and improvisation.

Linda Yohn simply cannot remember a day in her life that was not filled with music. Her early life was full of changes as the daughter of a well-respected cancer research scientist who moved his family about, but one thing was constant: the love of music instilled by her mother. So, when it seemed life was too hard to bear, young Linda would listen to her radio, play her guitar, dance her heart out and sing at the top of her lungs. So, it isn’t so strange that “older” Linda still does all those things!
