Saxophonist Miguel Zenón and pianist Luis Perdomo’s 2021 album El Arte Del Bolero was, as Morgan Enos wrote in JazzTimes, “Endlessly listenable, emotionally probing, and ECM-level atmospheric…a treasure box you’ll return to again and again.”

Now the two masters are back with the follow-up, simply titled El Arte Del Bolero Vol. 2, slated for digital release August 25, 2023 via Zenon’s Miel Music.

They celebrate the album with concerts:

– Tuesday, August 22 at An Die Musik in Baltimore  / – Wednesday, August 23 Solar Myth in Philadelphia / – Thursday, August 24 at Joe’s Pub in NYC

“Endlessly listenable, emotionally probing, and ECM-level atmospheric, El Arte del Bolero is a treasure box you’ll return to again and again.” – Morgan Enos, JazzTimes
