José Luis Madueño - Chilcano
Afro-Peruvian Jazz
Chilcano is the name of José Luis Madueño first solo album, in which he appears as performer of his own compositions. It was produced in Florida, (January, 1996), and edited by Songosaurus, an American label dedicated to latin jazz. The CD is being distributed in the USA and Europe since 1997. This Album has been released for the first time in Perú on June 26th, 1999 in a concert produced by RESONANCIAS Productions at the Peruvian-Japanese Theater with special guest musicians: Alex Acuña (drums) and Oscar Stagnaro (electric bass).
José Luis Madueño's compositions in this Album include Afro Peruvian rhythms as Landó, Festejo, Zamacueca, Valse and some other Latin-American styles as Bossanova, Baiao, Venezuelan Joropo and Cuban Son. The talented musicians that performed in Chilcano are world class players, well known, specially in the jazz spheres.
They come from different countries and live in the USA: Alex Acuña (drums & percussion, Perú), John Patitucci (acoustic bass, USA), Steve Tavaglione (saxophone, USA), Ramón Satagnaro (guitar, Perú), Oscar Stagnaro (electric bass, Perú), Richie Zellon (guitar, Perú), Pedro Eustache (flute, Venezuela), John Peña (electric bass, Puerto Rico) and Barry Smith (drums, USA). José Luis appears on the acoustic piano, synthesizers, cajón peruano and voice. The variety and interaction of different musical and cultural worlds contributes on giving a particular sound to this album.  
Chilcano has been considered by the American jazz critic as a project that “expands the boundaries of Latin jazz” with seldom rhythms as Landó and Festejo that are unknown by listeners of Latin jazz. For most people latin rhythms are those from Cuba, Puerto Rico and Brazil. South America has a wide variety of music that is just beginning to evolve and expand in areas as jazz, rock, pop and symphonic music. With productions like this, Perú appears in the Latin Jazz spheres bringing to the world this unique style, of exciting rhythms and melodies.
This recording has been well received by different specialized magazines in the USA, as Latin Beat, Jazz Times, Jam Magazine and Jazziz.
   
Latin Beat Magazine “Madueño's music is like a fresh breath form the Andes”.
Jam Magazine “... an outstanding album.”
O's Place Jazz Newsletter “All of the tracks are strong. It's a winner.”
JazzTimes

“José Luis Madueño's Chilcano is the perfect collection for
listeners intrigued by popular Latin jazz.”

Tribuna Bis

Jazziz
(Mark Holston)
“ José Luis Madueño's impeccable musicianship, entrancing
melodic themes, and heady collaborations with a handpicked
supporting cast of like-minded Latin jazz visionaries make
Chilcano one extraordinary debut.”
 
With this album, José Luis Madueño makes his debut in the industry of latin jazz in the USA as well as in Peru. The Distribution of Chilcano in Peru is made through RESONANCIAS, Madueño's own label.
