musical influences. In particular
he'll focus on the mix of Cuban and Jewish elements in his music. Israel
"Cachao" Lopez during his formative years in Miami. As a grownup he's released
a couple of beautiful ensemble cds of Cuban-Jewish music - not really a genre but more his own imagined
hybrid - on John Zorn's Tzadik label. Two recent
collaborative projects have extended his Jewish music explorations: Oy Vey.... Ole!!! (Tzadik) with Irving Fields of Bagels
and Bongos
fame; and Descarga Oriental - The New
York Sessions (Piranha) with Maurice el Medioni, Rodriguez
has also played with a range of folks including Marc Ribot's Cubanos Postizos
and his companion avant-percussionist Susie Ibarra as well as Joe Jackson. His
next local gig is with his Quinteto Roberto Rodriguez at Joe's
Pub, 425 Lafayette St. on Saturday,
June 23 at 9:30pm. Celebrate Brooklyn at the Prospect Park Bandshell,
