Eddie Daniels - Heart of Brazil: A Tribute to Egberto Gismonti Release Date: June 1, 2018
Resonance Records - http://bit.ly/2rmtOLG

A brand new masterpiece recording from the iconic jazz clarinetist and saxophonist, EDDIE DANIELS, paying tribute to the world-renowned Brazilian composer and multi-instrumentalist Egberto Gismonti. HEART OF BRAZIL features Daniels with the top-shelf trio of pianist Josh Nelson, bassist Kevin Axt and drummer Mauricio Zottarelli, plus the Grammy Award-winning Harlem Quartet. With new arrangements by Ted Nash, Kuno Schmid and Josh Nelson, Heart of Brazil collects songs from Gismonti’s classic early 1970s albums on EMI Records. The album was produced by Resonance president George Klabin, who has known Daniels since the 1960s and recorded him with the Thad Jones/Mel Lewis Orchestra at the Village Vanguard in New York City. Klabin has long felt Gismonti's work has been under-appreciated and that there was no one better to pull off an incredible tribute to the Brazilian maestro than Eddie Daniels. Gismonti says in his interview with acclaimed author James Gavin, “When I heard the record I felt immense joy...The repertoire spans a rich period of my composing. What a great present for my seventy years of life.”

Sous la houlette de la multi-instrumentiste @EsperanzaSpaldingTV, le festival polonais Bielska Zadymka Jazzowa rend hommage à l’héritage symphonique de Wayne Shorter. Un concert auquel participent le quartet d’Esperanza Spalding, le chef Clark Rundell et l’Orchestre philharmonique de Silésie.

Wayne Shorter, immense jazzman disparu en mars 2023, a énormément écrit pour orchestre (quand il officiait entant que directeur musical pour Miles Davis notamment), une grande partie de ces oeuvres n’ayant jamais été jouée. Le chef d’orchestre Clark Rundell a eu la chance de retrouver ces partitions inconnues du grand public et nous les fait découvrir avec esperanza spalding dans le cadre du festival Bielska Zadymka Jazzowa. Autre œuvre inédite : un arrangement original de Highlights from Iphigenia, opéra que Wayne Shorter a composé avec esperanza spalding quelques mois avant sa disparition, ici joué en première mondiale. 

Pour ce concert, esperanza spalding associe les notes de l’Orchestre philharmonique de Silésie à celles d’un quartet exclusivement féminin composé d’elle-même, de Terry Line Carrington (batteuse américaine), de Kris Davis (pianiste canadienne) et de Tineke Postma (saxophoniste néerlandaise). Pour sublimer le tout, ces musiciens sont accompagnés de quatre danseurs Antonio Brown, Kaylin Horgan, Christiana Hunte et Tashae Udo.

Programme :
Highlights from Iphigenia
 Midnight in Carlotta’s Hair
 Orbit
Forbidden Plan iT! 
 Gaia

Filmé le 17 juin 2023 au festival Bielska Zadymka Jazzowa à Gliwice, Pologne.

Esperanza Spalding : Tribute to Wayne Shorter - ARTE Concert

Wayne Shorter - Gaia (2013)

Wayne Shorter (soprano saxophone)
Esperanza Spalding (voice, libretto, double bass)
Leo Genovese (piano)
Terri Lyne Carrington (drums)

Orchestra of the Polish Baltic Philharmonic 
Clark Rundell (conductor)

Commissioned and premiered by the Los Angeles Philharmonic in 2013. This performance is from the Solidarity of Arts Festival, Gdańsk, 16 August 2014. (Video footage available here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MIzXiRLJPL8)

"‘I think everything has a purpose and everything has multi-uses,’ Shorter says. ‘To me, ‘Gaia’ is the planet we live on, and the fact we’re all here is symbolic of the limitless description of what life is about. What the libretto is saying is ‘wake up and dream,’ and the challenge is to bring that consciousness to anyone who’s taking for granted the surroundings that we live in and the planet that we live on and the universe that we’re in and the people we encounter. In other words, if we succumb to illusionary stuff and we become victims to a limited view of what life is supposed to be like, where are we? How do we progress? It’s not enough to be comfortable. We have to reach beyond. That’s what this piece is saying." [...] "He wanted it to be a living organism, like Gaia, and to evolve and change according to what was happening at every live performance of it," [Spalding] says." (Oakland Free Press)

" 'Gaia' was a murky, thick-set monster of a piece, 26 1/2 minutes in length [...] massive, slow-moving, opaque textures; sometimes tracking Wayne’s distinctive long, snaking melodic lines on soprano; treating the sections of the orchestra as blocs [...] Shorter — who, unbelievably, turns 80 years young this August — chimed in discreetly on soprano sax; Spalding sounded luminous even when stretched to the uppermost reaches of her range." (Richard S. Ginell, Variety)

Jazz legend Wayne Shorter, multi-GRAMMY® winning musician esperanza spalding, director Lileana Blain Cruz, and famed architect Frank Gehry (scenic designer) challenge myth-making and heroine stereotypes in a thrilling musical event that stares down the history of opera and makes some demands on its future.

For more than two decades, drummer, producer and vocalist Terri Lyne Carrington has crafted an eclectic brand of jazz that incorporates elements of bebop, soul, funk and much more. Since her debut in 1989, the GRAMMY®-nominated artist has established a reputation for assembling artists of varying styles and perspectives to create music that adheres to the traditions of jazz yet speaks to a much broader and more diverse audience. Carrington brings this same diverse sensibility to her new recording The Mosaic Project, an album that once again gathers a myriad of voices and crystallizes them into a multi-faceted whole that far outweighs the sum of its parts.

"Everything about this recording is about making a larger picture out of many various elements," says Carrington, who produced the 14-song set. "I assembled several friends - most of whom I've performed with in the past, and all of whom bring their own individual story - to help me create the big picture. For as talented as each of them are as individuals, when I put them all together, I have a much greater musical story - one that can be told in an interesting and compelling way."

Included on that list of friends are some of the most prominent female jazz artists of the last few decades: Esperanza Spalding, Dianne Reeves, Dee Dee Bridgewater, Sheila E., Nona Hendryx, Cassandra Wilson, Geri Allen and several others. Carrington says the emergence of so many great female jazz artists is what finally makes an album like The Mosaic Project possible, more so now than in decades past.

GRAMMY® WINNER TERRI LYNE CARRINGTON PAYS HOMAGE TO DUKE ELLINGTON'S MONEY JUNGLE

Money Jungle: Provocative in Blue marks 50th anniversary of release of historic Ellington-Mingus-Roach recording

Featuring Gerald Clayton and Christian McBride, with guests Clark Terry, Lizz Wright, Herbie Hancock and others

 

In 1962, Duke Ellington recorded a trio date with bassist Charlie Mingus and drummer Max Roach that is today considered one of the pivotal jazz recordings of the 1960s. Money Jungle, the 1963 album that emerged from the session, was -- among other things -- a commentary on the perennial tug-of-war between art and commerce. In some ways, the album's 11 tracks were intended as a sort of counterbalance to the capitalist bent of the Mad Men generation.

 

Fifty years later, this precarious balance in the world of jazz -- or in any art form, for that matter -- hasn't changed much. Enter GRAMMY® Award-winning drummer, composer and bandleader Terri Lyne Carrington, who enlists the aid of two high-profile collaborators -- keyboardist Gerald Clayton and bassist Christian McBride -- to pay tribute to Duke, his trio and his creative vision with a cover of this historic recording. Carrington's Money Jungle: Provocative in Blue is set for release on Concord Jazz on February 5, 2013 (international release dates may vary).

 

Duke's original recording is something that has haunted Carrington since she first heard it about a decade ago. "I had bought it on CD, from the discount bin in a music store," she recalls. "I put it on in my car, and I immediately just felt something mysterious about it. There was just an energy that moved through the tracks. Duke and Charles and Max had a chemistry about them. There was this tension that you could hear, and yet they fit together like a hand in a glove."

 

In preparation for the project, Carrington read up on Duke's biography. "I felt like a method actor, she says. "I just dug as deep as I could in the time that I had to get a glimpse of his perspective on things. When you start rearranging music by someone like Duke Ellington, you better feel really good about what you're doing. In the end, I felt confident that I didn't do him a disservice, because he was a very open-minded artist, and he was very much about moving forward."

Lyrics:

Yeah
We trapped in a dream
We tryna wake up 

Sometimes it's right and wrong but Sometimes it’s black and white 

Sometimes they give you paper but Sometimes they give you life 
Sometimes you gotta run and Sometimes you gotta fight 
Cause sometimes it's right and wrong But sometimes 
You could lock me and throw the key 
But you can't stop me I know I'm free 
Funny thing I been here before 
Nothin’ short of a miracle 
Hanging bodies on weepin’ trees 
The whole village would come and see 
Another nigga is crucified 
But that nigga is you and I 
It’s do or die
Maybe you could do you And I could do me and We could be free 
Maybe y’all could be true and I could be me 
Why we trapped in a dream? I don’t know 
Maybe you could do you and I Could do me and we could be free 
(Repeat x2)
Maybe y’all could be true and I could be me Why we trapped in a dream? I don’t know 

In the land of the give and take 
Master fishin’ with bigger bait 
Up and down on the interstate 
I’m really hopin’ we get away 
Momma wishin’ to see her son 
But the officer seen a gun 
See the masses Incarcerated 
Won’t let you pass on the part you playin Don’t don’t don’t 
You could do you and I could do me And we could be free 
Maybe you could do you And I could do me and We could be free 
Maybe you could do you And I could do me and We could be free 
Maybe you could do you And I could do me and We could be 
Pay attention how they In the kitchen 
Superstition for my inner vision 
Intuition I dont wanna listen 
But they got me fishin’ for A pot to piss in 
This a dissertation I’m a Mental patient motivatin’ 
Facin’ time in a matrix back to basics They racist on a basis they love to hate us 
We duck the pay cuts 
And grind to make up 
For the lies they make up 
In the belly of the beast ten toes down Never on my knees 
This is how it is this is how it be 
Sometimes in ya lifetime its the night time When its flight time 
Hope the wrong time ain’t the right time 
Mount zion on the lifeline 
No cryin’ let my light shine 
Why we dyin’ while you fight crime 
Had a moment you forgot about it 
Move to the next hot topic 
Nah God I’m still mad 
While they write spells on a pill pad 
Cuz I feel bad 
It’s in my blood like a real dad 
Sometimes it’s right and wrong 
Sometimes it’s black and white 
Sometimes they give you paper 
Sometimes they give you life 
Sometimes it’s right and wrong 
Sometimes it’s black and white sometimes 
Sometimes they give you paper 
Sometimes they give you life give you 
Maybe you could do you And I could do me and We could be free 
Maybe y’all could be true And I could be me
Why we trapped in a dream? I don’t know

Terri Lyne Carrington + Social Science - Trapped in the American Dream (Part 1) ft. Kassa Overall

A look into the creation and inspiration of Terri Lyne Carrington's  forthcoming album, New Standards Vol. 1 

Pre-order here: https://Candid.lnk.to/NewStandardsVol1YO

Available on CD, LP, and streaming on September 16th, 2022

For the 2018 opening celebration of the Berklee Institute for Jazz and Gender Justice, Terri Lyne Carrington asked her students to select and perform songs from the famed jazz Real Book - a compilation of lead sheets or scores of jazz standards - written by women composers.  When she released there was only one in the entire book, Carrington, an NEA Jazz Master, Grammy Award winning virtuoso jazz drummer, composer, inter-disciplinary artist, activist and educator, who has worked tirelessly over the last decade to advocate for inclusivity and raise the voice of women, trans and non-binary people in jazz, set out to shift the narrative.

Over the next several years, Carrington assembled New Standards (Hal Leonard Sept 2022) a book of the 101 jazz compositions written by women. new STANDARDS Vol. 1 captures 11 of these compositions. This star-studded recording features special guests Ambrose Akinmusire, Melanie Charles, Ravi Coltrane, Val Jeanty, Samara Joy, Julian Lage, Michael Mayo, Elena Pinderhughes, Dianne Reeves, Negah Santos and Somi, backed by a core section comprised of Carrington (drums), Kris Davis (piano), Linda May Han Oh (bass), Nicholas Payton (trumpet), and Matthew Stevens (guitar.)

The record gives listeners a sense of this project’s vast range, with contemporary composers like harpist Brandee Younger’s “Respected Destroyer,” clarinetist Anat Cohen’s “Ima,” vocalist Abbey Lincoln’s “Throw It Away” as well as pieces by Gretchen Parlato, Carla Bley and more.  The recordings - which range from vocal ballads to contemporary creative music - are inspired and adventurous and explore the limitless universe of jazz. 

Terri Lyne Carrington began playing drums when she was seven, performed with pioneering jazz flugel hornist Clark Terry at ten, and was awarded a scholarship to the Berklee College Of Music at age eleven.  Her list of credits includes the likes of Lester Bowie, Stan Getz, Woody Shaw, David Sanborn, Cassandra Wilson, Dianne Reeves, and Herbie Hancock. As a bandleader, Carrington’s triple decade spanning repertoire includes the Grammy award-winning album The Mosaic Project, Money Jungle: Provocative In Blue, and her Grammy-nominated set with Social Science titled Waiting Game. Carrington currently serves as Founder and Artistic Director of the Berklee Institute of Jazz and Gender Justice.

Produced by Terri Lyne Carrington and Matthew Stevens, this album is only “Vol. 1”.  Carrington’s goal is to record all 101 pieces from the new songbook that she’s created.

Recorded in Cut Records, Valencia, Spain. Featuring Albert Sanz on piano and Pablo Martín Caminero on double bass. Video editing by Pablo Martín Caminero. 

Dedicated to a dear and wonderful friend, Prashant Bhargava, who taught us to love without reservation, and to be unapologetically real, without fearing any consequential vulnerability.

Please look up his work. I really believed in it.

In the height of the pandemic, ganavya and Munir Hossn sent each other voice notes on WhatsApp, unsure when they would see each other. They named this collection of voice notes “sister, idea” after one of Munir’s first voice notes, that started: “sister, idea…” before he played his melody. Months into this process, circumstances brought Munir to Miami, where ganavya was visiting her parents. The duo went into Tony Succar’s studio for a day, and recorded some of these songs for each other. In the album, the duo sing in Portuguese, Spanish, Tamil, Farsi, Arabic, and English, as they navigate being there for each other across seas. 

In “esperança,” ganavya and Munir sing of hope, of the lessons to be learned from those who live with the earth, of how each morning gives renewed possibility, that with each rising of the sun we can bring warmth into our hearts, no matter how difficult the night has been.

搖滾樂團放program被炎上，那爵士樂手呢？

Did a FarPlay session with my friend the superb guitarist / composer Gilad Hekselman. He was on Windows, where low-latency audio is a little bit more complicated than on Mac or Linux. Still, it worked perfectly. We played All The Things You Are and Solar and challenged the connection by focusing on simultaneous contrapuntal lines. Super fun.

Aug. 29, 2019 | Colin Marshall -- Dan Tepfer has transformed the acoustic piano entirely with his new project, Natural Machines. Watch the keys and you'll see this Disklavier — a player piano — plucking notes on its own. But it's not a prerecorded script.

Here's how it works: Tepfer plays a note, and a computer program he authored reads those notes and tells the piano what to play in response. Tepfer can load different algorithms into the program that determine the pattern of playback, like one that returns the same note, only an octave higher. Another will play the inverted note based on the center of the piano keys. These rules create interesting restrictions that Tepfer says make room for thoughtful improvisation. In his words, he's not writing these songs, so much as writing the way they work. To better communicate what's happening between him and the piano, Tepfer converted these audio-impulse data into visualizations on the screen behind him, displaying in real time the notes he plays followed by the piano's feedback. We dive even deeper into this project in a recent Jazz Night in America video piece.

Perhaps the trickiest part here, unlike a human-to-human duo, is that the computer plays along with 100 percent accuracy based solely on Tepfer's moves. He compares it to dancing with a robot that never misses a beat. Tepfer has to play in kind to keep the train on the tracks, but if he falls out of step, so does the computer. On the other hand, Tepfer has unlocked a new frontier of music available to acoustic piano players: He's essentially given himself more limbs to play the piano at once, and at times we see more than 10 keys pressed at a time or a sequence of notes played at seemingly superhuman speeds. It's a central idea to what innovative technology enables for us — that which is impossible for us to achieve on our own.

Dave Holland Quartet - Conference Of The Birds [HQ]

Sam Rivers (September 25, 1923 – December 26, 2011. 

'Contrasts' is his one album as leader for ECM Records.

In 1959 Rivers began performing with 13-year-old drummer Tony Williams. Rivers was briefly a member of the Miles Davis Quintet in 1964, partly on Williams's recommendation. This edition of the quintet released a single live album, Miles in Tokyo.

During the 1970s, Rivers and his wife, Bea, ran a jazz loft called "Studio Rivbea" in New York City's NoHo district. It was located on Bond Street in Lower Manhattan and was originally opened as a public performance space as part of the first New York Musicians Festival in 1970. Critic John Litweiler has written that "In New York Loft Jazz meant Free Jazz in the Seventies" and Studio Rivbea was "the most famous of the lofts".

During this era Rivers continued to record, including several albums for Impulse!: Streams, recorded live at Montreux, Hues (both records contain different trio performances later collated on CD as Trio Live), the quartet album Sizzle and his first big-band disc, Crystals; perhaps his best-known work from this period though is his appearance on Dave Holland's Conference of the Birds, in the company of Anthony Braxton and Barry Altschul.

日本是爵士樂在亞洲生根最深、歷史最久遠的國家，也因此造就不少世界級的日本爵士音樂家。在大編制樂團的領域，秋吉敏子、大倉恵、宮嶋みぎわ、挾間美帆都是在美國闖蕩出名號的優異音樂家。而現在，你可以開始期待秩父英里的發展。

巴西音樂是資產豐富的寶庫。Choro、Samba、Bossa Nova、MPB，這些風格互相承襲卻又各具特色，更受到美國爵士樂深厚的影響。而現在，這些音樂類型與爵士樂在紐約與巴西兩地，又有了更為深化的融合...

Becca Stevens & The Secret Trio - "California"
Stream/Buy: https://orcd.co/california-bstst
From the album 'Becca Stevens & The Secret Trio' coming September 2021
Pre-Order/Pre-Save: https://orcd.co/bstst

This is a live performance of the album arrangement of “California” off of Becca Stevens & The Secret Trio (GroundUP Music). 

Becca Stevens - “I’ve known about Paul Curerri’s music for a long time, and this song has always been my favorite of his. I learned how to play the guitar part a few years ago and made a demo of it for a friend of mine as a gift. During the early stages of this album I threw this in my “writing scraps” folder just for fun. I was surprised to hear that Michael not only knows Paul’s music as well, but that Michael’s brother grew up playing music with Paul. Due to injuries, Paul Curreri is no longer able to play these songs himself, and it was very important to Michael and I that we do this arrangement justice. We love the contrast between California's normal idealized identity as the land of hope and opportunity and Paul's biting lyrics about the emptiness in the struggle.”

"California” Lyrics
By Paul Curreri 

Too few folks know how fun it is 
To believe in invisible stuff like this 
I'ma drink wine till I can see 
The great beyond in the room with me 

California 
Happy all the time 

Burn that bridge and bet that farm 
There's risk of loss when one wants this hard 
To drift among the untied knots 
To get your passport stamped where your heroes got caught 

California 
Happy all the time 

O, to wake and find the webbing gone 
And a circular structure in one's song 
Playing harmony to both earth and air 
And bobbing the heads of the unaware 

California 

The all in all is blue 
The all in all is blue 
Baby don't worry, you're why I'm here at all

Becca Stevens & The Secret Trio - California (Live Performance Video)

Čtyřnásobný držitel ceny Anděl je často označován jako jedna z vůdčích postav české jazzové scény. Na svém dosud poslední CD Autumn Tales se vrací zpět k triovému formátu. Album obsahuje pět Dorůžkových nových skladeb, doplněných melodiemi vycházejícími z židovské písňové tvorby, skladbou Bohuslava Martinů ve vlastní úpravě, a dokonce i jedním meziválečným jazzovým šlágrem.

El termino "Latin Jazz" ha sido usado, en un principio, para dar nombre a un ritmo producto de la fusión entre el Swing y las marchas de Son Cubano, o los "campaneos" del Mambo. Es así como los jazzeros norteamericanos conciben la orquestacion en el set con una claro enfasis en la subdivisión ternaria de las corcheas, a diferencia de los ritmos originales que son binarios. A partir de los años 70´s con el advenimiento del "Jazz/Fusión" el termino "Latin Jazz" se empieza a usar para denominar a toda aquella música que es producto de la fusión entre el jazz y los ritmos latinos. He aquí unas transcripciones propias de unos grooves "Latin Jazz" o "Swing Mambo" que hice del Gran ELVIN JONES

The name "Latin Jazz" was used, initially, to name a pace product of the fusion of Swing and Cuban son rhythms, or Mambo"campaneos". This is how Americans conceive jazzy orchestration on set with a clear emphasis on ternary subdivision of eighth notes, unlike the original rhythms that are binary. From the 70's with the advent of "Jazz / fusion" the term "Latin Jazz" came into use to refer to any music that is the result of the fusion of jazz and Latin rhythms. Here are a few grooves own transcriptions of "Latin Jazz" or " Swing Mambo" I did the Great ELVIN JONES.

With Mbókò, pianist-composer David Virelles – based now in New York but born and bred in Cuba – has taken the folkloric rhythms of Afro-Cuban religious ritual and transmuted them into a 21st-century music resonating with mystery and meaning. Mbókò, can mean “fundament” or “sugar cane” or “The Voice,” not the human voice but The Voice that is believed in Abakuá culture to be the voice of a spirit, or spirits.

In this vivid and exciting project, the Santiago-raised and New York-based pianist-composer David Virelles looks towards one melting pot from the vantage point of another. A far-reaching work with deep cultural roots, Gnosis speaks of transculturation and traditions, and of the complex tapestry of Cuba’s music – the sacred, the secular, and the ritualistic – but the work’s shapes and forms could only have been created by a gifted contemporary player thoroughly versed in the art of the improvisers. Strings, woodwinds and percussion all have their roles to play in Gnosis, viewed by Virelles as “several families functioning within one unit: this dynamic symbolizes multicultural interaction.” Virelles’ responsive piano and the vocals and percussion of Román Díaz, a profound figure in the transmission of Afro-Cuban musical history, are at the centre of the action. Gnosis was recorded at New York’s Avatar Studios in May 2016 and produced by Manfred Eicher.

The music of Cuban-born, Brooklyn-based pianist David Virelles conjures a hallucinatory world in which ancient Afro-Cuban rhythms and ritual reverberate in the here and now. His latest ECM offering is Antenna, music attuned to a timeless rhythmic-cultural current even as it pulses with a vibrantly urban, modernist energy. Antenna – a six-track, 22-minute EP to be released exclusively on vinyl and digitally – sees Virelles channel Afro-Cuban percussion into an electro-acoustic, almost psychedelic swirl, one that melds jazz improvisation and organic grooves with digital refraction, shadowy synthesizers, otherworldly field recordings and Cuban street poetry. Antenna is an undulating, throbbing, dizzying dream of sound. Mbòkó, the pianist’s ECM leader debut from 2014, featured in Best Of The Year lists in The New York Times, NPR, iTunes and The Village Voice, among others. The Guardian described Mbòkó as “a jazz-infused world-music project beyond categories,” adding: “Virelles looks set to make big differences in contemporary music for years to come.”

cabizbajo con mi mente puesta en el pasado
ido dolido porque todo se ha perdido
las sueños y las esperanzas
vuelan  como la mañana
y el silencio me despierta
te confundo con mi almohada
cuando fumo tu silueta me echa humooo

Te fuiste para La Habana
cerquita pero lejana
te fuiste para La Habana y me dejaste (con las ganas)
cuatro semanas con María y con Juana.

Ya me estoy cansando de tu abandono
ya me estoy cansando de tu abandono
que ya mujer me estoy cansando de tu abandono
ya me estoy cansando de tu abandono

Y cuando la noche desnuda llega
solo me quedé con mi sufrimiento
es la angustia ________la triste espera
solo me quedé con mi yerbabuena

CORO
Ay mi yerbabuena
solito me quedé
y con mi cumbia riquita
solito me quedé
y con mi música bonita
solito me quedé
con mi mojito que me cura
solito me quedé
solito me quedé

(Ay que rico está)

solito me quedé
solito me quedé
solito me quedé

Todo el mundo con la lengua afuera todo el mundo

Todo el mundo con la lengua afuera todo el mundo...

Agua corriente de arroyo que llega hasta el mar
yo quiero ser como tu no quiero enemistar

Agua corriente de arroyo que llega hasta el mar
yo quiero ser como tu no quiero enemistar

Agua corriente de arroyo que llega hasta el mar
yo quiero ser como tu no quiero enemistar

Solito me quedé. Yerbabuena
