"This
is what the next chapter in the merger of jazz and Latin music
sounds like." - Bob Blumenthal
-Boston Globe
"Fresh
Latin jazz worthy of its name and not just Latinized jazz."
-Latin Beat
"Utililizing
a stellar cast of musicians, authentic instruments and unique
arrangements, the Peruvian-born guitarist stirs up a percolating
pot of rhythms…It's an often challenging work which takes
the oft-combined Latin and jazz areas to the next plane."
- Jazz
Times
"An
engaging debut that puts yet another twist on the ever-evolving
Latin jazz movement…an album of musical depth and aural delights." -Jazziz
"Zellon
has opened up to jazz a cultural tradition that has been largely
overlooked on this side of the equator."
-CD Review
"Zellon's
composing and arranging skills are impressive throughout the album…based
on Latin rhythms-from the familiar tango to the more exotic Afro-Peruvian
festejo and lando…Its blend of jazz and Latin idioms is organic
and original." -The Orlando Sentinel
