  • Description

    Sextet recording from pianist/composer Olegario Diaz, his talented group includes trumpeter Alex Sipiagin, bassist James Genus and drummer Nate Smith.

    Born in Caracas, Venezuela, Olegario Diaz moved to USA at age 17 to study jazz at the Berklee College of Music and then furthered his studies at New York's Manhattan School of Music where he earned the master's degree. Currently in Venezuela, Diaz leads an active life as performer and renowned author of several instructional books. He travels frequently to New York to record and perform.

    "Diaz wrote seven of the tunes here and that seems logical as he appears to be one of the best jazz composers today...He is more than a fresh breath of air in the classical post-bebop tradition." - Ole Nimand, Jazz Special on (SCCD31774 'Basquiat By Night/Day')

    Personnel: Olegario Diaz (piano), Alex Sipiagin (trumpet), Bobby Franceschini (tenor saxophone, flute), James Genus (bass), Nate Smith (drums), Nené Quintero (percussion)
