Buenos Aires Jazz begins 2011 with the Kenny Werner Trio

Theaters, clubs, cultural centers and public spaces filled with jazz. From today at 20.30, at the Teatro Coliseo, start the metronome and counting the beats for the trio of pianist Kenny Werner release the first stanza of the fourth edition of the Buenos Aires International Jazz Festival.

"Most jazz today is a photograph," he once said Werner. The professor, originally from Long Island, anti-egomaniac, complaining of "excessive revisionism," which seeks to "psychedelic" and "mystical" in their concerts, and jazz featuring the hit yet when he heard the cool vinyl Miles Davis, In a silent way, comes to Buenos Aires to try his theory of perfect trio, something like a combo of perfect balance between Bill Evans and Art Tatum, accompanied by the bassist and drummer Johannes Weidenmueller Ari Hoenig.

With clinical unpluggeds cycles, outdoors, the classic Jazzología, films about gender, a permanent photo exhibition (Recoleta), the bet of crosses between local and international musicians and the pearl of the night closing jam sessions, the City will be caught by the swing, improvisation and the entelechy of the 12 tones until next Sunday.

With international visits from the likes of the Danish percussionist Marilyn Mazur, bassist Arild Andersen Norwegian, Italian trumpeter Paolo Fresu, French-Vietnamese guitarist Nguyen Le, American trumpeter Charles Tolliver and pianist Baptiste Trotignon French. All the hand to the odd and even crossing a line, at an affordable price.
