Trio Florecer
November 4, 2012 @ 6:30 pm - 9:00 pm
$12 – $20
Intimate South American Songs
Trio Florecer plays classic pasillos, bambucos, pasajes and more – South American cousins of the waltz that unite indigenous, European, and African influences. Tenor Mark Baum gives voice to the longing of the lyrics in harmony with clarinetist Zack Pitt-Smith’s beautifully improvised counter-melodies, while bassist Jeremy Allen fluidly shifts meter and rhythm, holding down the groove.
The recording that brought the group together, “Arboles y Amores,” has received airplay on major radio stations in Spain and Colombia as well as in the United States. For this performance, they will be joined by friend and collaborator Rafael Manriquez, master guitarist from Chile.

“Una maravilla la intepretacion, te pone los pelos a punto… Pura delicadeza y sentimiento!” – Mundofonías, Radio Exterior de España
“A collection of classic Colombian melodies that, along with Claudia Gómez’s ‘Tierradientro’, reinforce Colombia’s lovely musical heritage. Mark Baum’s voice and Rafael Manríquez’s guitar partner seamlessly in a pleasant, liquid symbiosis.” – Michael Guillén
