As an adult Mindeman revisited Chile, became tied to the culture, and decided to embark upon a project celebrating Chile's musicians and legendary wordsmiths on 'Woven Threads'. It features vocalist Kurt Elling on two tracks and alto saxophonist Miguel Zenon on three. \\r\u003cbr\u003e\\r\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe pianist grew up to become a busy composer, arranger and producer. Mindeman has performed all over the world, most notably with Branford Marsalis, Kurt Elling, and Antonio Sanchez, among many others. His debut recording, In Your Waking Eyes: Poems by Langston Hughes, was released in 2014 to critical acclaim. \\r\u003cbr\u003e\\r\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn 2017 Mindeman returned to Chile. He immediately became immersed in the modern Chilean music scene, where he met a number of like-minded musicians who use Chilean folk, jazz and other Latin music to express themselves. These musicians subsequently became the core of this project. The celebrated vocalist Francesca Ancarola stood out for her interest in jazz and Latin music. Bassist Milton Russell and drummer Carlos Cortez Diaz rounded out the rhythm section. As his ideas progressed, Mindeman began to focus on the poetry of two revolutionary Chileans, Violeta Parra and V\\xedctor Jara. Parra and Jara were titanic figures in their country's Nueva Canci\\xf3n Chilena and for their stance against the dictator Augusto Pinochet.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCasi, Casi\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEl Aparecido\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSin Sentido\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLa Rueda\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLa Casa De Al Lado\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWoven Threads For Violeta Parra: What Word\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWoven Threads For Violeta Parra: A Thousand Stars\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo Puedes Volver Atzr\\xe1s\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chalkys.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55137069859201,"sku":"959535","price":17.48,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0056\/8043\/1219\/files\/51uzRzNq1UL._SL1500.jpg?v=1767241029","url":"https:\/\/chalkys.com\/products\/959535","provider":"Chalkys.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
