Jorge Pardo - Jeta
Music Video LinksArtist Biography
Available in:
Jorge Pardo is a Spanish flutist and saxophonist, born in Madrid on December 1st, 1956.
Biography :
The musical studies of Jorge Pardo begin at the age of 14 years in the Royal Conservatory of Madrid. Since the beginning, he has been attracted by jazz, a fact that materializes during his first performances in university groups.
After playing with several professional musicians, he formed Dolores, his first band, with Pedro Ruy Blas, becoming a reference in the Spanish musical landscape. He will later know Paco de Lucía, accompanying him in several of his world tours, sharing the stage with the greatest figures of international jazz. Jorge Pardo then represents a new reference of jazz fusion in the early 1980s, which has already developed its own style of roots, which is reflected on his first LP as a soloist, an eponymous album released in 1982 on Blau. After having been part of the Paco de Lucía sextet for a few years, Jorge Pardo joined Carles Benavent's sextet alongside Tino di Geraldo, Joan Albert Amargos, Gil Goldstein, Rubem Dantas and Othello Molineux.
In 1995, with Carles Benavent and Tino di Geraldo, he recorded the Concierto de Sevilla, in which Latin, flamenco and jazz mixing took on a specific dimension in the musical landscape.
With Francis Pose and J. Vázquez "Roper", he founded the trio of 3 who released two albums so far.
He has produced various albums as a soloist, making his mark evident in fusion and musical experimentation. El Canto de los Guerreros, Mira and 2332 are among them. Since 2004, Jorge Pardo has taken part in the international tour of Chick Corea, called Touchstone Tour.
