Angels
I listen to them and I love them, I relate to them because I know how they feel, and vibrate with low resonances, the way they imbue with effervescence and excitement when they are playing, with passion and commitment.
I know their moves, their heartbeat in unison with the rhythm that they create with their small hands, with an open heart. All their stories, all different, all owners of a unique power that is theirs, their own language without words, their unknown inner realm, envisioned only through the notes they choose and beat, sweetly and violently ...

RHONDA SMITH, comenzó a  tocar Bajo a los 12 años, incentivada por su hermano. Ha tocado con Prince, Jeff Beck, Chaka Khan, etc. Emana alegría y un  tremendo power, sensibilidad, gusto, onda, ritmo, creatividad, carisma, en fin, una  ídola! Todos mis respetos a la gran Rhonda.

She began playing bass at age 12, encouraged by her brother. She has performed with Prince, Jeff Beck, Chaka Khan, and so on. She emanates joy and tremendous power, sensitivity, taste, groove, rhythm, creativity, charisma, accurate slap technique, in short, an idol! All my respects to the great Rhonda.

TAL  WILKENFELD,  una de las grandes revelaciones del  Jazz y  una de las figuras más prometedoras en la escena actual. Es considerada, por su juventud un prodigio por la crítica especializada. Comenzó a los  18 años en el Bajo,  y a los 21 ya había grabado su primer álbum, un disco que le ha servido para establecerse como una de las bajistas más respetadas de la escena. Con todos los temas producidos y arregaldos por ella misma, Tal muestra  una profundidad armónica, una agilidad técnica y una capacidad para hacer "cantar" al instrumento  realmente sorprendente. Personalmente pienso que de existir la reencarnación, ella es la de Jaco Pastorius. 

One of the great revelations of Jazz and one of the most promising figures in the scene. He is considered a prodigy by his youth by the critics. She started at age 18 on bass, and at age 21 had already recorded his first album, an album that has served to establish itself as one of the most respected bassists on the scene. With all tracks produced and arregaldos by itself, she show a deep harmony, technical agility and ability to make "sing" at Bass really amazing instrument. I personally think that if reincarnation exists, she is the Jaco Pastorius reincarnation.

ESPERANZA SPALDING, contrabajista, bajista, compositora y cantante, además de productora, nació en Portland en 1984. Es realmente increíble como disocia el hecho de cantar tocando bajo o contrabajo, haciendo líneas en ambos instrumentos nada fáciles, en hermosas composiciones o arreglos de tema de otros Esperanza se mueve grácilmente, con fuerza y suavidad al mismo tiempo, como un bello pez en el agua.


Bass, bassist, songwriter and singer, also a producer, was born in Portland in 1984.It's really amazing how she the singing dissociates playing bass or bass, doing not easy lines on both instruments. At all  her  beautiful compositions or arrangements on the songs  of others  Esperanza moves gracefully , strong and  smooth at time ,  like a beautiful fish in the water.
