Pianist Kenny Barron and Brazilian Music - the two go well together. Kenny's love for Latin Music was fueled by working with Dizzy Gillespie (on, among others, Jambo Caribe in 1964 and the Melody Lingers on from 1966 on which they recorded "Mas Que Nada" from Jorge Ben). with his participation on Bossas & Ballads (released by Stan Getz in 1989), the pianist got a chance to venture further into Brazilian jazz. Under his own name, Kenny Barron released Samb�o in 1993 (with star participations by guitarist Toninho Horta and the late Nico Assump��o on bass) and in 2002 there was Canta Brasil, recorded with the Trio da Paz. Now Mr. Barron treats US with a fantastic Kenny Barron & the Brazilian Knights.
