AC Timba Jazz (aka Afro Cuban Jazz Project) is an award-winning jazz ensemble that carries on the amazing music of the late composer and percussionist Juan “Long John” Oliva”. Most of the performers are native born Cubans and have been making incredible music for many years.

Featuring:

  • Javier Vergara, saxophone
  • Bryan Velasco, piano
  • Carlitos Del Puerto, acoustic bass
  • Joey De Leon, congas
  • Jimmy Branly, drums

There are only four tunes on this disc but they total to almost 50 minutes! Each tune offers a wide berth for each musician to explore the harmonic and melodic characteristics of the composition. The solos are extended and involved tremendous virtuosity and energy. The interplay between Joey De Leon, the percussionist, and Jimmy Branly, the drummer, is absolutely magical. And the bass performance by Carlitos Del Puerto is pitch perfect and all over the instrument. You can tell by the smiles on the faces of these performers that they are enjoying every moment of the session.
