Eddie Palmieri’s Jazz Concert Report
On November 15, 2017, at about 8:00 p.m. Eddie Palmieri’s Latin Jazz Band performed at the UCD Mondavi Center. The band was composed of six members, and the instrumentation features a variety of stringed and wind instruments that created a wondrous harmony, throughout the whole venue. Particularly, the band used piano, bass cello, trumpet, alto saxophone, timbales drum, and a bongo drum. During that time, I was seated in row c108, that has an exquisite view of the whole performance. The main artists, Eddie Palmieri, has showcased his mastery in the art of composing, playing, and improvising skills as he played the piano to set the mood. As their performance progresses, Eddie initially played playful tunes that reflect not only his skills but also his love for his family as well as his beloved country, Puerto Rico. From his wondrous performance as well as his small ensembles ability to jive with each other, the audience has definitely been definitely engaged.
For his first performance, Eddie has dedicated his music to his late wife. This initial piece that he played was a mixture of two different compositions that he organically fused into one, through a combination of careful notation and playful improvisation, in the form of solemn meditation. The two initial pieces were entitled Mi Novia and Life.
After his initial performance, he then went to play el Ritmo, which is a series of jazz pieces which are joyous and is mostly polyphonic in texture in allegro. These series of pieces are apparently rich in tonality but is consonant when it comes to harmony. The reason why I believe that their pieces are consonant in nature is that despite the series of staccatos played in each instrument, all of them were combined in a ‘smooth-sounding’ way throughout the whole performance (Tillmann, Bharucha and Bigand 2000).
In relation to an interview that I watched him, he said that the reason for his unique sounding pieces is not simply because he was totally engaged with the art of improvisation. Rather he noted that what he did was to use performance techniques from different cultures such as Cuban drumming (which originated from African musicality) and the complexities of Jazz. By combining both these two different “entities”, he said that we could create a more entertaining and touching music.
As per the performers, the concert has featured an all-Puerto Rican rhythm section, which features Ruben Rodriguez for bass, Camilo Molina as the timbalero, Little Johnny as the conguero, and last but not the least, Eddie in the piano. Also, the other members of their groups were Alex Norris and Louis Fouche playing the trumpet and the saxophone, respectively.
Aside from the said tunes, the group of has also played some music from their latest album. Being the composer and the main arranger of their band, the new album mainly reflects Palmieri’s as well as the Puerto Rican’s life. All in all, most of the pieces that Palmieri played during that night was comprised of a smooth melodic sequence and a consonant sounding combination. However, due to its polyphonic texture, the ...
