   About The Cultures of Rhythm
English: The Cultures of Rhythm, a New York based collective of experienced young players from a variety of musical backgrounds, brings many influences to their sound. Comprised of current and former members of the Duke Ellington Orchestra, French Kicks, Isley Brothers, Mofro, and Kevin Jones and Tenth World, diversity is the groups greatest asset. With so many perspectives represented, the players find common ground on a fundamental level, and the resulting musical explorations are a celebration of soulfulness, distilled into exciting new forms. /// Fronted by noted trumpeter and New Orleans native Kevin Louis, the groups members are steeped in the jazz, soul, blues, and American songbook traditions. Playing from deep within the history of their instruments, they stroll, strut, and dance through swing, jazz, second line, blues, funk, boogaloo, and rock. The Cultures of Rhythm recently recorded a live CD produced by the great Brazilian saxophonist, composer, and arranger Zé Luis Oliveira (Bebel Gilberto, Ivy), and was subsequently selected, through a joint search by the U.S. Department of State and Jazz at Lincoln Center, to represent America in 2007 as Jazz Ambassadors, which tour countries abroad not typically visited by American jazz artists. It will be the fifth time a version of this group will have toured on behalf of the Department of State, having previously visited over 20 countries, in Southern Africa, South America, the Mediterranean, and the Middle East.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------En Espanol: Las Culturas del Ritmo, un colectivo basada Nueva York de jugadores jóvenes experimentados de una variedad de fondos musicales, traen muchas influencias a su sonido. Abarcado de los miembros actuales y anteriores del duque Ellington Orchestra, French Kicks, Los Hermanos de Isley, Mofro, y Kevin Jones y Décimo Mundo, diversidad es el activo más grande de los grupos. Con tan muchas perspectivas representadas, los jugadores encuentran la tierra común en un nivel fundamental, y las exploraciones musicales que resultan son una celebración del soulfulness, destilada en excitar nuevas formas. /// Afrontó por el trumpeter conocido y New Orleans nativo Kevin Louis, los miembros de los grupos se empapa en el jazz, el alma, los azul, y las tradiciones americanas del songbook. Jugando profundamente dentro de la historia de sus instrumentos, dan un paseo, apuntalan, y bailan a través del oscilación, del jazz, de la segunda línea, de azul, de canguelo, de boogaloo, y de roca. Las culturas del ritmo registraron recientemente un CD vivo producido por el grandes saxophonist, compositor, y adaptador brasileños Zé Luis Oliveira (Bebel Gilberto, Hiedra), y fueron seleccionadas posteriormente, con una búsqueda común por el departamento de los E.E.U.U. del estado y del jazz en el Lincoln Center, para representar América en 2007 como embajadores del jazz, que viajan los países al exterior visitados no típicamente por los artistas americanos del jazz. Será la quinta vez una versión de este grupo habrá viajado a nombre del departamento del estado, visitando previamente sobre 20 países, en África meridional, Suramérica, el mediterráneo, y el Oriente Medio.----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "From Colombian Nat'l TV Canal '&'" "From Colombian Nat'l TV Canal 'CityTV' and Noticias RCN"
