Saxophonist Rodrigo Santic Releases Original Jazz Fusion Work
Cyclos, the first solo album of original contemporary jazz
compositions by Chilean musician Rodrigo Santic, is now available. The
seven track work showcases Santic on the saxophone, at the helm of a
quintet combining samba, funk, drum and bass, bebop and songo to create
an innovative sound.
Santic’s
musical versatility is evident in his previous works as well. While
studying at the University of Chile’s Music Conservatory, he was part of
the Cuarteto de Saxofones Villafruela. The sax quartet released
“Saxofones en Latinoamérica” a repertoire of Latin American music and
“Saxofón en Concierto, Compositores Chilenos 1988-1998,” featuring
contemporary works by Chilean composers. Santic also played with Chilean
alternative rock band Lucybell during the XLIV Festival Internacional
de la Canción de Viña del Mar and for the musical score featured in the
short film “Miradas del pasado.” He performed with various orchestras,
including Juvenil de Santiago, National Youth Symphony, Symphony of
Chile and the Santiago Philharmonic. In the San Francisco Bay area, he
has performed with the Cuarteto Latinoamericano de Saxofones at the
Mission Cultural Center, Community Music Center and Anna’s Jazz Island;
with various musicians at La Peña Cultural Center; and with Quijeremá at
the Mill Valley Film Festival. He’s also performed with several jazz,
salsa and merengue bands from the Bay area and New York.
Cyclos, his album, is available for digital and/or CD purchase through iTunes, bandcamp.com, cdbaby.com, Spotify, amazon.com and Verizon music.
KPOO’s Andanzas recently featured music from Cyclos and an interview with Santic. Radio Chile Lindo also featured Santic ahead of his CD release party.
