O’s Notes: One of the most impressive duets we’ve encountered in a while is El Arte Del Bolero featuring Puerto Rican saxophonist Miguel Zenón and Venezuelan pianist Luis Perdomo. It was recorded live at the Jazz Gallery in New York on the first take! Both musicians are masterful and together they perform a delightful set that should please a wide audience. Moods span from romantic to melancholic. Among the best are “Que Te Pedi”, “Alma Adentro” and “La Vida Es Un Sueño”. Rather than trying to dazzle you with speed and complexity, they focus on pure tones, harmony and feel, allowing their instruments to breathe and simmer together in unison.
