Carlos Henriquez’s BRONX PYRAMID marks the Bronx-born, Nuyorican
bassist’s first album as a leader—and the emergence of a fully fledged
Latin jazz master. Joined by an all-star roster of musicians including
Ruben Blades and drummer and fellow Jazz at Lincoln Center
Orchestra member Ali Jackson, Henriquez expertly blends modern
jazz with Latin rhythms, demonstrating why he’s been performing with
greats like Tito Puente, Eddie Palmieri, and Celia Cruz since he was 14.
When Henriquez’s high school band won the inaugural Essentially
Ellington competition in 1996, he came to the attention of Wynton
Marsalis, who took the bassist on the road shortly after he graduated
high school. Since then, Henriquez has toured the world with the
Wynton Marsalis Septet, Chris Botti, and the Jazz at Lincoln Center
Orchestra, with whom he’ll be touring the United States throughout the
summer and fall. On BRONX PYRAMID, Henriquez expertly combines
the best of the Latin and jazz traditions into an infectious album that
will make you move no matter your favorite genre.
