Navidad De Los Andes

Saluzzi Dino Anja Lechner Felix Saluzzi

Cellist Anja Lechner and clarinet and sax man Felix Saluzzi both\nappeared as soloists on Dino’s orchestral recording “El Encuentro”\nin 2009, a shared pleasure in the work leading to the formation of\nthe present trio, a group which draws on much musical history.\nBrothers Dino and Felix have more than 60 years of collaborations\nbehind them. They started making music together as children in\nArgentina, and Felix frequently plays in Dino’s “family band”\nprojects (as heard on ECM albums including “Mojotoro” and “Juan\nCondori)”. Anja Lechner has worked closely with Dino since the\nmid-1990s, beginning with the “Kultrum” alliance between Saluzzi\nand the Rosamunde Quartet. She has also toured widely in duo with\nthe bandoneonist, and recorded with him on the critically-acclaimed\n“Ojos Negros” in 2006. “Navidad de Los Andes” (Andean Nativity) has\nits own distinct character, at once simple and elusive, like the\nmagical realist tales of the region. From the liner notes by\nLeopoldo Castilla: “In this beautiful musical work sound is born\nwith the intensity of the wind and the powerful progression of the\nsand that preserves memories. Between these forces, the melody\ncreates spaces that rise or cascade slowly downward like empty\nskies. (…) Suddenly, the tango, an outsider, with a hat and a black\nmoon, enters the scene. A long shadow, enticed by the river of\nmusic.”
