MP3 Ernie Mansfield with Juan Bibiloni - Color Drops
9 MP3 Songs
JAZZ: Latin Jazz, LATIN: Brazilian Jazz
Details:
“ . . . a new album by Ernie Mansfield, a flutist, and Juan Bibiloni, a guitarist. It is called ‘ColorDrops’ . . . These two have a kind of musical togetherness that is as rare as it is satisfying. The tunes are largely originals. although another jazz-Latin great, Egberto Gismonti, is represented by one tune and the album includes perhaps the anthem of this country’s musical love.”
-- R. C. Smith, Morning Herald, Durham, N.C.
“Spanish guitarist Bibiloni joins flutist Mansfield for Latin jazz-pop material that shows . . . prowess at both rhythm and riffing . . . swings effortlessly through Luiz Bonfa’s ‘Morning of the Carnaval’ and Egberto Gismonte’s ‘Loro’, demonstrating . . . deftness in both fast and slow settings.”
-- TM, Guitar Player Magazine

In a letter to Ernie Mansfield, the reknowned American composer John Adams wrote: “. . . you have a very lyrical gift and compose in a very refreshing, tuneful style. I thought all of the melodic ideas were interesting and not at all trite . . . I think it’s very pleasing music of its genre . . . I’m pleased you gave me the chance to hear it.”
