He is a composer and pianist extraordinaire. He is a bandleader, lecturer, and visiting professor. He is a chart-topping producer; a Grammy, Latin Grammy and Emmy award winner. He is the recipient of his native country's highest civilian honors.
MICHEL CAMILO is all of these things and more, wrapped in a human being of boundless enthusiasm, musical passion, and love of life.
The artistry and virtuosity of Michel Camilo bridges the genres of Jazz, Classical, Popular and World music. He is a pianist with a brilliant technique and a composer who flavors his tunes with the spice of Caribbean rhythms and jazz harmonies.
To see him perform live is to witness the energy of a tropical storm being unleashed on 88 keys. Academy Award-winning filmmaker Fernando Trueba, who featured Camilo in his documentary film Calle 54, says: "Michel Camilo is one of the top all-around musicians. Whether it's jazz, classical, Latin American music or film music, Michel is in his element. Every time I see him play, I feel like I'm witnessing a miracle."
Few who have experienced his music and performances would think otherwise. And now, this miraculous talent has been captured in Camilo's latest release on Telarc, Live at the Blue Note. The Grammy Award winning two-CD set shows a full range of musical emotion - from volcanic musical interplay to shimmering ballads - recorded with state-of-the-art technology in one of the world's most beloved jazz venues.
