In his debut album, saxophonist and composer Jorge Sylvester has created a true fusion of modern jazz and Latin music. In Sylvester's playing, the listener can hear strong influences of every great jazz alto player from Bird through Eric Dolphy. On MusiCollage, which consists entirely of his own compositions, he is joined by Claudio Roditi; a rhythm section that includes drummer Gene Jackson and vibraphonist Monte Croft; Bobby Sanabria, an exciting, combustible encyclopedia of Latin percussion (on four tunes); and guitarist Marvin Sewell, who adds an acid jazz and contemporary urban feel to two tunes. Jorge Sylvester's MusiCollage is a treat for your ears, your mind, and your dancin' feet.
