Fantuzzi is joined by the consummate Flexibles, Luis Conte and Wadada, for extraordinary night of Global Music, Drumming, Dancing and Song

Two amazing musician friends of Fantuzzi’s will be joining him for this rare night of aural pleasure. Check out these histories:

Percussionist – Luis Conte

Luis Conte’s genius stems from his ability to integrate the powerful rhythms of his native Cuba with the American necessities of American pop music. His long and varied career has included numerous Hollywood film scores and mega-successful albums with Madonna, Ray Charles, Phil Collins, Santana, Shakira, Jackson Browne, Sergio Mendes, Cachao, and a multitude of other artists too numerous to mention.

Born in Santiago, Cuba, Luis spent the first 15 years of his life soaking up the rich musical heritage of “El Son” and Carnival. “Life in Cuba is all about enjoying life, and music is central to that lifestyle,” Luis says. “Music is almost like food to Cuban people.” While immersed in the music of his native Cuba, Luis also developed a passion for Rock & Roll, R&B soul music, jazz, and the Beatles.

At 15, looking for freedom, Luis emigrated to Madrid, Spain. He soon had another opportunity to travel, this time to Hollywood. In California, Luis stayed with a cousin and attended Hollywood High School, playing guitar in numerous rock bands throughout his teens.

After high school, Luis met John Monteallegre, who reunited him with Cuban drums at LA City College. By the time he was 18, Luis was intensely interested in drumming and took every opportunity to play and to learn, drawing his inspiration from a deep source of rhythm absorbed during his youth in Cuba.

Since then, Luis has become one of the most respected and recorded percussionists in the world.

Trumpeter – Wadada

Wadada Leo Smith was born in Leland, Mississippi, and his musical life began in high school concert and marching bands. At the age of thirteen, he became involved with the Delta Blues and other music traditions. His formal musical education came from his stepfather Alex “Little Bill” Wallace, composer and guitarist, and one of the pioneers of electric guitar in Delta Blues.

Wadada Leo Smith, trumpeter, multi-instrumentalist, composer, and improviser is one of the most acclaimed creative artists of his times, both for his music and his writings. For the last five decades, Mr. Smith has been a member of the historical and legendary AACM collective. He distinctly defines his music as “Creative Music.” Mr. Smith’s diverse discography reveals a recorded history centered around important issues that have impacted his world.

Mr. Smith was also honored by the Jazz Journalists Association as their 2017 Musician of the Year as well as the 2017 Duo of the Year for his work with Vijay Iyer. The JJA also named him their 2016 Trumpeter of the Year, 2015 Composer of the Year, and 2013 Musician of the Year. Also, in 2013 he was also selected as DownBeat’s Composer of the Year and he graced the cover of that magazine in November 2016.

“-un desgarrador homenaje a los románticos de lo jond” ~Alberto García Reyes, ABC.
TRANSLATION: ” A heart-wrenching homage to the romantics of pure flamenco”
‘LA CHIMI’, a remarkable ascent–which is no surprise considering her childhood and family history. Both of her parents are freelance performing artists. She grew up immersed in ethnic music and dance and it was natural for her to discover a career in flamenco. With her background in flamenco, classical, and contemporary dance Lakshmi was fortunate to quickly be embraced by artists in Spain and has come to work aside great artists such as Manuel Molina, Remedios Amaya, Joselito Mendez, Antonio Moya, La Hermenia, Carmen Ledesma, Antonio Rey and La Tona.
‘EL CHUPETE’, Coming from Seville, Antonio Rodríguez El Chupete is a body that generates an igneous dance. The US press has called him El Salvaje , promoter of “a friction-filled, addictive dance.” To contemplate him is, in effect, to be captivated by his genuine way of approaching this art, outside any guideline that can be considered canon. He marches, charges, twists, gets inside himself; his bushy giant’s beard gives him the look of a wolf or ogre, but within his eyes shines a deeply moving tenderness, which sometimes translates into gentle movement passes. As unusual as unforgettable.
ANTONIO MOYA AND MARI PEÑA, Antonio Moya (Nimes, 1965), guitarist, or “tocaor” as he prefers to be called, born in France to a family of Andalusian immigrants, together with his wife flamenco singer Mari Peña, lives in Utrera. Mari Peña powerful voice, is one of the last representatives of the singing of Lebrija and Utrera in Andalusia. Moya is also artistically connected to Lebrija and Morón de la Frontera, and whose aroma of earth and olive trees is present in his playing, with a subtle modern patina. He has accompanied and recorded with Bernarda de Utrera, Pepa de Benito, Gaspar de Utrera, Enrique Extremeño and Tomás de Perrate among others.
Antonio Moya: “Culture is an important element of society, and we make culture”
