Soprano saxophonist Kenny G performs here today
|
AMAZING ARTIST Kenny G has transcended genres
The not-so-kind people call his music elevator music. However, Kenneth Gorelick, better known by his stage name of Kenny G, has his loyal supporters.
The soprano saxophone player, who also on occasion plays alto and tenor saxophone and flute will perform in India for the first time.
The concert is organised by Black Dog from United Spirits and DNA Networks in Bangalore on May 12 at UB City, 24, Vittal Mallya Road, to celebrate its 125th year.
Kenny Gis one of the few instrumentalists who have transcended genres to become a household name.
In his latest album, “Rhythm and Romance” Kenny G has applied his distinctive style to the already emotionally-charged Latin genre and the results are sure to connect with his millions of fans in India
“Rhythm and Romance” is a unique combination of rich samba, salsa and bossa nova love songs anchored by Kenny’s intoxicating and signature saxophone melodies. From the classic ballad “Sabor a Mi” to the romantic “Besame Mucho”, Kenny has created a tantalizing album unlike any other in his catalogue.
On this album, Kenny performs with some of the best Latin musicians including Alex Acuña of Weather Report (drums), Ramon Stagnaro (guitar), John Pena (bass), Michito Sanchez (percussion) Enrique Martinez (accordion), Nathan East (bass), Paulino Da Costa (percussion) and producer Walter Afanasieff (piano) to create a truly infectious rhythmic style.
He will perform with a five-member ensemble compositions both from “Rhythm and Romance” and old numbers.
