Manage episode 426485662 series 3560547
WUCF’s July artist for ‘In the Key of Latin Jazz’ is Fernando Huergo. This Argentinian bassist has worked with everyone from Horacio Hernandez and David Liebman to Paquito D’Rivera and Richie Flores. His new album was inspired by a phrase he read in The New Yorker and captures the feeling he feels as he sees the news and all the absurd and grotesque things that continue to occur. We discuss his big band sound, the history of the chacarera and his thoughts on the future of Latin Jazz.
