Murió Ray Barretto El precusionista falleció a los 76 años The Associated Press Descanse en paz, Ray Barreto The Associated Press SAN JUAN- El percursionista puertorriqueño Ray Barretto falleció este viernes en la mañana por múltiples complicaciones de salud en el Hospital de la Universidad de Hackensack, Nueva Jersey. Tenía 76 años y pasó las últimas dos semanas muy enfermo, internado en la clínica. ¡Que viva la música! GRAMMY: Nominados Barretto, conocido como "el Rey de las manos duras" por la forma en que azotaba los cueros, nació el 29 de abril de 1929 en la ciudad de Nueva York y llegó a ser reconocido como una de las grandes luminarias del jazz latino. "No sé qué arreglos vaya a hacer la esposa. Primero habrá un momento de sosiego para entonces bregar lo que tenga que hacer. Pero él estaba sufriendo muchísimo y Papá Dios se lo llevó a morar con él", dijo a la AP el portavoz de la familia, Fidel Estrada. "Como decía él siempre: '¡Qué viva la música!", agregó. Barretto llevaba más de dos semanas en la unidad de cuidados intensivos del Hospital Valley en Nueva Jersey, por problemas respiratorios y cardíacos. La semana pasada Barretto estuvo nominado a un Grammy en la categoría de Mejor Disco de Jazz Latino con su trabajo Time Was - Time Is. Sin embargo, su compatriota Eddie Palmieri se alzó con el premio por su producción Listen Here!. |

Information on funeral arrangements will be available tomorrow morning. For nearly 40 years, conguero and band leader Ray Barretto was one of the leading forces in Latin jazz. His hard, compelling playing style has graced the recordings of saxophonists Gene Ammons, Lou Donaldson, Sonny Stitt, and guitarists Wes Montgomery and Kenny Burrell. Born April 29, 1929 in Brooklyn, Barretto is one of the most prolific and influential Latin percussionists in the history of modern jazz. With a musical heritage as deeply rooted in the bebop jam sessions held in Harlem during the late-'40s as in his Puerto Rican ancestry, Barretto has spent over four decades refining the integration of Afro- Caribbean rhythms with the improvisational elements of jazz. Coincidentally, it was the tune “Manteca” recorded by Gillespie with Chano Pozo on percussion that drove Barretto to music. And it was a version of that same tune that became Barretto's first recording with Red Garland. Few artists have been as successful over the years at fusing these two genres as Barretto, an undisputed master of this style. A pioneer of the salsa movement, Barretto achieved international super stardom and released nearly two dozen albums with the Fania label from the late-'60s until salsa's popularity peaked in the mid-1980's |
