The Gonzalo Bergara Quartet: “Claroscuro” Album Release
May 22, 2016 @ 7:30 pm - 10:00 pm
$20 – $25
With music heavily influenced by Django Reinhardt and traditional jazz of Buenos Aires, the quartet returns to the Red Poppy to present their latest album, Claroscuro.
The Gonzalo Bergara Quartet takes an all-acoustic, contemporary approach to 1930’s Reinhardt-inspired jazz. Composer and leader Gonzalo Bergara mixes a cascade of arpeggios (chord notes played in succession) with the sounds of Paris and his native Argentina. His first CD, Porteña Soledad, was Editor’s Pick in Guitar Player Magazine and was called a “masterpiece” in Vintage Guitar Magazine.
Featuring:
Gonzalo Bergara – lead guitar
Max O’Rourke – rhythm guitar
Daisy Castro – violin
PJ Wyderka – upright bass
