Two years after the CD “Joan Chamorro presents Èlia Bastida”, in which she appeared in her different facets as a performer (violinist as main instrument, vocalist and tenor sax), we give birth to this “The magic sound of the violin”. Èlia, during the 8 years that she has been part of the Sant Andreu Jazz Band, a project that I have directed for almost 14 years, has had an interest, a dedication, such a passionate dedication to music and specifically to jazz, that she has made May her evolution lead her to be, today, a great soloist, especially with the violin. The violin is an instrument that, in my opinion, still has a lot to contribute to jazz. There have been and are great violinists (Grappelli, Venuti, Ponty, Lockwood, to name just a few). Without neglecting the musicality, strength, intensity of Grappelli as the first reference, and adding everything contributed by bebop, hardbop and other music, Èlia's search for a discourse that collects all the aspects that she incorporates, the finally, they walk along their own musical path, rich in nuances, open and free of labels, but, above all, passionate, with which they manage to extract all the wonderful possibilities that “the magical sound of the violin” has. The Magic Sound of the Violin Èlia Bastida joins the universe of jazz violinists. Our next appointment is “Èlia Bastida meets Scott Hamilton”, of which we have already recorded 5 songs and which will recall the meeting that the great saxophonist had with Joe Venuti back in the eighties. Joan Chamorro
