Manel Camp is a pianist, composer, educator, arranger, musical director and performer with many of the biggest names in classical music, the "cancer" Catalan, jazz and rock as well as head of the Department of Jazz and Modern Music School of Music in Catalonia and director of the Council National Culture and Arts. Beyond that and to top it off Manel is also the leader of the "Manel Camps Quartet" which is what matters most to us at this time because the music is great which flows from these four exceptional musicians who have able to make their mark in recent musical history of our country. Manel
and its people, inspired and creative, have chosen diversos caminos musicales en su larga y fructífera carrera musical pero se unen ahora para dar vida a un nuevo proyecto instrumental, original y directo que combina la tradición jazzística más pura con un lenguaje propio y arriesgado.
Manel Camp, siempre sensible sigue avanzando en este su mundo propio contando con la ayuda de tres piezas imprescindibles para el. Matthew Simon a la trompeta, Horacio Fumero al bajo y Lluís Ribalta a la batería, tres músicos que saben tejer un diálogo vivo y real y con el que han creado un discurso de veinte años en el que la comunicación, la creación espontánea y la energía de los diálogos instrumentales forman el leitmotiv de su música.
“Tangram” is the title of this third recording Manel Camp Quartet and the Tangram is a game that contains seven geometric pieces that are combined in every possible way to make a new one, all inclusive, but that is different from the original parties .
Seven are also the notes form a musical scale and mixed together to form something new, something full of possibilities and nuances. Something that has nothing to do with the opening notes, like a tangram. So the coordinated contribution of all the notes is required to build a new product, essentially the same and different. Seven
, how could it be otherwise, are the subjects and each title is one of the letters of the word Tangram. Each piece has an entirely different character, ranging from the lyricism of the initial "T" to the playful joy of "N" or the gathering of "G" to the film "M" final. With all this we can say that this is a collection of pieces evocative and suggestive than just resulting in a downright cheerful book gives and without apparent complications.
