A brilliant pianist wHO has combined the bebop tradition with his Panamanian heritage, African elements, and a willingness to take chances, Danilo Perez's improvisations are enchanting to watch modernize. In concert, he has been known to feature his four improvising in little Joe unlike time signatures at the same time with surprisingly coherent results, and his originals tend to develop as they go along with surprising results. Perez started playing piano in Panama at age octad and, in 1985, touched to Boston to study at Berklee. He played with Jon Hendricks (1987) and Claudio Roditi (1988), and had a longtime association with Paquito D'Rivera. Danilo Perez gigged and recorded with Dizzy Gillespie during the trumpeter's last eld, and headed respective roger Huntington Sessions as a leader for Novus and Impulse, landing at GRP for 1998's Primal Avenue. Several other albums followed, including 2000's Motherland.
