The bassist Celso
Pixinga musical career sums up to twenty five years. The magazines
“Down Beat” and “Bass Frontier” considered Celso Pixinga the world
best bass player playing the “slap” technique, where a guitar pedal is
used on the bass bringing a havier sound to it. That “specialty”
brought invitations for Pixinga to play with some jazz musicians like
the drummer Dave Weckel and the Cuban pianist Gonzalo Rubalcaba, among
others.
The CD Celso Pixinga is now releasing through Mix House entitled
“Bossa Jazz” is very peculiar. We have Celso Pixinga acompanied by the
excellent singers Rita Kfouri, Maria do Carmo Diniz, Valma Ruggieri
amd Lica Ceccato interpreting jazz standards like “It Had to be You”
and “Good Enough”, Lica Ceccato´s interpretation of her composition
“No Good Bye” and some Brazilian classics as “Lembra de Mim” of Ivan
Lins and Vitor Martins, “Só Tinha de ser com Você” of Tom Jobim and
Aloysio Oliveira” and “ Só Danço Samba” of Tom Jobim and Vinícius de
Moraes. On two instrumental tracks we have “Zona Oeste “ composed by
the great bassist Nico Assumpção and “Wave” of Tom Jobim.
This disc will surprise the listeners for its peculiarity as well for
its arrangements and perfomance, where it can be shown Celso Pixinga´s
strong musical personality.
