About the Book

El libro Boricua Jazz pretende documentar los aportes de los puertorriqueños a la historia del Jazz, desde los pioneros que estuvieron presente en la infancia de esta expresión musical hasta las nuevas generaciones de virtuosos. La información en las biografías es tan solo un resumen de los puntos más relevantes en la trayectoria de cada músico y en algunos casos incluimos discografia. La cantidad de los datos biográficos y discográficos incluidos en el libro dependió de varios factores; disponibilidad de información en los medios, respuesta del artista a requerimiento de información y pertinencia de la información. Se realizaron varias entrevistas a músicos y otras personalidades que suministraron datos valiosos para la redacción de Boricua Jazz, entre ellos; Gonchi Sifre, Jimmy Rivera, Julio César Rivera, Freddie Gumbs, Mark Monts de Oca, José Furito Ríos, Wito Morales, Héctor Matos, Chiro Álvarez, Jerry González, Chembo Corniel, Charlie Sepulveda, Tiko Ortiz, Janice Maisonet, Pete Rodríguez, Ruben Cabán, Isaac Lausell, Antonio Luis Orta, Gabriel Rodríguez, Raul Maldonado, Brenda Hopkins, Carmen Noemi. Otros músicos nos enviaron información y biografias a través de medios electrónicos.El primer capítulo de Boricua Jazz presenta un breve resumen de los inicios del Jazz en Nueva Orleans a modo de proveer un trasfondo histórico para aquellas personas no aficionadas al Jazz o que recién descubren y comienzan a disfrutar de esta música. Interesados en una historia más detallada del Jazz le recomendamos los libros sobre el tema que encontrarán en la bibliografía.En el segundo capítulo les presentamos información resumida de las formas musicales que fueron desarrollándose en Puerto Rico durante el siglo 19 y comienzos del siglo 20, y los primeros encuentros entre la música estadounidense y puertorriqueña. Sobre este tema, también se han publicado excelentes libros, algunos de los cuales utilizamos para Boricua Jazz.En el tercer y cuarto capítulo reseñamos los aportes de los pioneros del Jazz Boricua. Parte de la información en estos capítulos fue obtenida del libro 'Puerto Rican Pioneers in Jazz, 1900 - 1939: Bomba Beats to Latin Jazz del autor Basilio Serrano, y fue complementada con información adicional obtenida de otras fuentes.El capítulo cinco se lo dedicamos a una de las figuras puertorriqueñas más importantes en el Jazz; el trombonista y compositor Juan Tizol. Tizol fue integrante de una de las mejores orquestas de Jazz en Estados Unidos, y compositor de estándares que re-introdujeron el elemento latino al jazz años antes del nacimienrto del llamado latin jazz.En el capitulo seis nos movemos entre el jazz y la salsa, destacando las trayectorias de músicos boricuas que aportaron en ambas vertientes musicales y en el jazz latino. Debemos establecer que debido a las migraciones de puertorriqueños a los Estados Unidos durante todo el siglo 20 hasta la actualidad, en Boricua Jazz incluimos las biografías dé músicos nacidos en Puerto Rico y de aquellos con descendencia boricua nacidos en los Estados Unidos.El capítulo siete reseña la historia de dos organizaciones de extrema importancia durante las décadas de 1960 y 1970 para el desarrollo del gusto por el Jazz en Puerto Rico; el San Juan Jazz Workshop y el Taller de Jazz Don Pedro. Sin estas organizaciones y los músicos que participaron en ellas, la escena del Jazz en la actualidad, con todos sus festivales y conciertos, no hubiera sido posible.Años de exposición al Jazz, gracias al San Juan Jazz Workshop y al Taller de Jazz Don Pedro, tienen como consecuencia lo que relatamos en el capítulo ocho, 'Festivales y Conciertos en Puerto Rico'. El capítulo nueve, 'Bomba Jazz', propone el surgimiento de un Jazz Latino genuinamente Boricua. Una nueva generación de virtuosos puertorriqueños comienzan a fusionar de forma más balanceada los sonidos folclóricos de Puerto Rico con el Jazz.El capítulo diez, nos trae al
