Album Info
Release Date: 2005Label: MDR Records
As a native of Japan living in the USA, Argentina was just too far away to visit until October 2004 (springtime in the Southern Hemisphere). Believe it or not my first impression at the airport in Buenos Aires was "what a nice air" (Buenos Aires means "good air" in Spanish!). I hope our listeners can feel this beautiful spring atmosphere from our music; Buenos Aires is truly a jewel box of talented musicians.I feel honored to present this album from this beautiful city.
Love, Tomoko Ohno
Since 2003 Tomoko and I have been working together in the
USA as part of bassist John Lee's group. Throughout this last couple of years we also had the honor to perform together alongside the legendary Clark Terry and tour Europe as part of the Dizzy Gillespie Alumni All Star Big Band during the month of November of 2004 Nevertheless most of our energy went towards this music project of ours, which in this instance happens to include Guillermo Delgado and Fernando Martinez, two very talented young Argentine musicians.
On a very personal note, it's been twenty years since I last
recorded under my name in Argentina. I can't imagine a better group of musicians to share this new musical adventure with.
