Short intro

The astounding comeback of Chico O'Farrill at age 79 continued with this terrific collection of mostly Afro-Cuban styled compositions - some brand-new, some more than half a century old. Originally written for Dizzy Gillespie, the swinging title tune takes on a more complex Afro-Cuban treatment this time, with Michael Mossman capably taking on the trumpet work. Arturo Chico O'Farrill October 28, 1921 June 27, 2001 was a Cuban composer, arranger, and conductor, best known for his work in the Latin idiom, specifically Afro-Cuban jazz or Cubop, although he also composed traditional jazz pieces and even symphonic works. Born to an Irish father and a German mother, he played the trumpet early in his career. He composed works for Machito Afro-Cuban suite with Charlie Parker, 1950 and Benny Goodman's Bebop Orchestra Undercurrent Blues, and arranged.

The symphonic sweep of Chico O'Farrill's exuberant Afro-Cuban jazz sensibilities suffuses Carambola, further testimony to the Havana-born, New York-seasoned composer's understated mastery of the Latin big-band sound. For five decades O'Farrill has worked with the best in the business: Mario Bauza, Machito, Dizzy Gillespie, Chano Pozo, Candido, Patato, and many more. Two well-known extended works, Aztec Suite and Afro-Cuban Jazz Suite, garner fresh hearings.
