Colette Michaan: Earth Rebirth

Flutist Colette Michaan creates a pastoral collection of tunes with Leo Genovese/p-key, John Benitez/b, Luisito Quintero/timb and Usnier Sanches Bustamante/perc on a fluid and free mix of tunes. There’s a clever and clear salsa pulse to her interpretation of Charles Mingus’ “Reincarnation of a Lovebird” that is enticing, with even in the group improve of the title track has a hallowed Monument Valley Feel.Mireya Ramos  adds some vocals, most notably on the Afro-Cuban and earthy “Campina”, with Genovese floating with the leader on a simmering “Ni Contigo Ni Sin Ti” while Michaan hovers on the slow and sauntering “El Raton”. Dreamscapes.
