""…the music, which also features tenor saxophonist Mark Shim, is anything but typical. In fact the program, comprised of four original pieces, arrangements of four jazz masters' compositions and a classic bolero, affirms Perdomo's inventive spirit." "Beginning with his "The Other Left", Perdomo demonstrates an ability to move the Latin jazz in his own direction" "Even the percussion discussion that follows is somewhat atypical in its free-flowing meter" "The pianist evinces a delicate melodicism on his trio recital of the beautiful Hector Lavoe-associated "Comedia"..""

About the album

This time the exceptional pianist Luis Perdomo reaches back to the earliest influences he grew up listening to: South American and Afro Caribbean Rhythms, on this, his second outing for Criss Cross Jazz: The 'Infancia' Project. Luis has handpicked a well balanced and stellar band to back him up: two players of the new generation with fresh ideas and concepts, Mark Shim on tenor saxophone and virtuoso percussionist Mauricio Herrera, plus two very influential legends deeply rooted in the tradition: bassist Andy Gonzalez and drummer Ignacio Berroa. With The 'Infancia' Project Luis Perdomo further establishes himself as a resourceful master musician and bandleader.

The sharp timing of Berroa,percussionist Mauricio and Perdomo Herera is alternately beautiful and wrenching contrasts with the often much lazier play from tenor Mark Shim - and that makes the whole the CD exciting.
