El Viejo Caminante [CD] (ONLINE ORDER ONLY)

Dino Saluzzi/Jacob Young/José Maria Saluzzi - "El Viejo Caminante". The Argentinean father and son team of Dino and José Maria Saluzzi are joined by Norway's Jacob Young, in an album of musical depth and great charm. "It fills me with joy," says Dino Saluzzi, delighting in this recording's sonic blend. "Jacob and José are very good together. They have different sounds, different visions, but when it comes to the artistic output there is something beautiful happening." The elder Saluzzi has lost none of his youthful enthusiasm for artistic collaboration, or for venturing beyond stylistic borders: "I always strive to make contact with new ideas outside my normal element," he says, still seeking out contexts that offer, as he puts it, "potential for both musical and human growth." The program includes originals, new and old, by all three musicians, a song by Karin Krog, as well as a couple of standards.
