Descripción

Alba Esteban joined the Sant Andreu Jazz Band at the age of 10, as an alto saxophonist, soprano and singer. In 2014 she became the orchestra's baritone saxophonist and has since filled that position brilliantly.

Fifteen years after meeting Alba Esteban, I am very happy to see the release of this new CD, the 18th in the collection "Joan Chamorro presenta", dedicated to her, where we can enjoy, apart from her baritone, her soprano sax, inspired by the great Sidney Bechet, her warm voice, which is becoming more and more distinctive.

The baritone is a very special instrument, usually associated with the saxophone section of a big band and less known than the alto and tenor saxophones. Alba, as a singer herself, makes her instrument sound melodic, lyrical, both in its sound and in her improvisations.
