From his initial training in Havana to his exile in the United States, to his soundtracks for some of Clint Eastwood's films, Arturo Sandoval crossed the second half of the twentieth century like a meteorite. His fabulous performances from the 1970s within the legendary Irakere group, alongside the visionary Chucho Valdés, confirm the great creativity that reigned in Cuba at the time. Rich in experiences (as a complement, listen to the Cuba-Music And Revolution by Gilles Peterson and Stuart Baker for the Soul Jazz label), this artistic period was admirably transcribed in 1992, on the British stage of the Brewhouse Theatre. Surrounded by a complicit band, the American composer and multi-instrumentalist offers here a broad spectrum of his talent, well beyond the strict Latin jazz framework. Marked indelibly by the coppery flashes of bebop (one thinks of course of Dizzy Gillespie or Charlie Parker, both fans of sunny rhythms), Arturo Sandoval offers a captivating escapade in blues land, scatting like a handsome devil at the bend of an improvisation, and devotes himself to masterful flights of fancy on the piano, his other instrument of heart: impressive… Vincent Caffiaux

Cook Laboratories takes you on a tour of the world of hi-fi sound, by taking you on a tour of the world. Stop by Boston's Symphony Hall to hear a preview of Tchaikovsky's Romeo & Juliet Suite, then to Seville to relish the flamenco singers, to Port of Spain, Trinidad for some calypso and to Martinique for beguine, all before heading off to Detroit's Fox Theater to hear Reginald Foort play the great organ. And there's still time to catch New Orleans for some blues by Lizzie Miles & Red Camp and Dixieland jazz by the Tony Almerico gang. This recording is for anyone who enjoys a cruise.

The South Bronx is one of New York's cultural lungs. Directed by Henry Chalfant, Elena Martinez and Steve Zeitlin, the documentary “From Mambo To Hip Hop” confirms this phenomenon. First, the filmmakers return to the historical members of the Puerto Rican community and the musical scene that emanates from it. Various names of mambo and salsa such as Machito, Eddie Palmieri and Willie Colon are reviewed, ballrooms on the asphalt where insolent sensual choreographies are staged, and even the legendary concert of the Fania All Stars at the Yankee Stadium, all in front of more than 40,000 spectators… Reflecting endemic poverty and the real estate crisis of the mid-1970s, the second part of the film focuses, for its part, on the nascent hip-hop movement via the tutelary figures of Kool Herc and the Rock Steady Crew. Some Nuyorican b-boys (a term used to describe New Yorkers of Puerto Rican origin) comment on this harsh and paradoxically fertile period through the many sets of DJs and break competitions. Long-winded, they ultimately trace an obvious link between two cultures endowed with the same appetite for rhythm, dance, and a certain form of resilience. Vincent Caffiaux

Welcome to the surrealist cabaret by Argentina's answer to Tom Waits, Daniel Melingo, whose songs and clarinet tell the poetry of the shallows, of love and vagabond pathways. Under his black hat shines crazy eyes while he fills his offbeat tango with candomblé, milonga and Mediterranean accents. Displaying real charisma, he inhabits the scene through a deep voice that carries the weight of many implied sleepless nights. A generous host, Melingo includes guests such as Vinicio Capossela, an emblematic figure of Italian folk rock and Juliette, a free spirit whose guile capsizes "Tango del Vampiro." We also encounter the timeless "Volver a los diecisiete" by Chilean Violeta Sandoval and Naïssam Jalal's flute playing, whose grace matches a that of a text by Garcia Lorca or the Quechua poet Atahualpa Yupanqui ... Very classy. **Jeanne Lacaile**

Founded by the great Oscar Hernandez and Aaron Levinson in 2000, Spanish Harlem Orchestra – or SHO – is an emblematic salsa group, winner of two Grammy Awards, and a figurehead of ‘salsa dura’ – salsa typical of Spanish Harlem (New York City neighborhood) born in the late sixties and popularized by the great Fania Records label. The orchestra is elegantly composed of pianist Oscar Hernandez, three vocalists (Jeremy Bosch, Carlos Cascante and Marco Bermudez) and two trumpeters (Hector Colon and Manuel Ruiz), two trombonists Doug Beavers and David Rothschild), a saxophonist (Mitch Froman), and then there are congas (George Delgado), bongos (Jorge Gonzales), timpani (Jeffrey Lopez) and a bass (Jerry Madera). Together, they create a music that does not age; a music that belongs to the past but still remains fresh, its future dependant on groups such as the Spanish Harlem Orchestra that help to perpetuate a precious heritage. For this performance, the atmosphere is warm, the mood is contagious, and the salsa steps follow one another. It’s hard not to smile as you get caught up in the intoxication of the brass instruments, and it’s hard not to feel sunshine on the face, and rum in the throat once you get hooked on the feverish congas. Led by salsa giant Oscar Hernandez – former musical director of Paul Simon and Ruben Blades, who played with Ray Barretto for six years and shared the stage with Charlie Parker, Dizzy Gillespie, Tito Puente and Oscar D’Leon – the Spanish Harlem Orchestra has not finished spreading salsa and good vibes around the world. **Anaïs Christidis Guillemard**
