Orfeu by Ron Carter For nearly 40 years, has been jazzs most in-demand and well-traveled bassist: from Miles Daviss Someday My Prince Will Come to A Tribe Called Quests The Low End Theory. Along the way, Carter has recorded several projects featuring Brazilian music. On this recording, Carter, along with pianist Stephen Scott, tenor saxophonist , guitarist , drummer Payton Crossley, and percussionist Steve Kroon apply jazz forms to Afro-Brazilian samba rhythms. As a frequent visitor to Brazil and as a devoted student of that countrys music traditions, Carter and his crew deliver a subtle, laid-back CD that combines the best of both worlds. Carters Saudade, which roughly translates from Portuguese as longing, highlights the Iberian character with its mournful melody. His other tunes Por-do-sol, Samba De Orfeu, and Obrigado make the Rio De Janeiro/Bahia-born rhythms swing with their festival-parade soul intact. On Jobims Manha De Carnaval, from the motion picture Black Orpheus, Persons broad and breathy tenor solo echoes s floating melodies. Carters 1:17 Special, dedicated to the African-American underground railroad and Dvoraks Goin Home, ring with the spirituals and the blues, peppered by the percussive percolations brewed by Carters buttery bass tones and the rhythmic relations from Brazil. --Eugene Holley Jr.
