Michael Brecker: un gran saxofonista / Michael Brecker: a great saxophone player

Michael Brecker con su familia / with his family


Si ustedes recuerdan mi articulo de octubre 7, 2005, bueno, Michael Brecker estaba muy enfermo, y ahora estoy realmente entristecido, porque el murió ayer.
Un gran músico, y un dotado saxofonista. Desde los viejos días con Joni Mitchell o Steps Ahead (por nombrar sólo unos pocos, su carrera es excepcional), y aún antes, hasta sus álbumes como líder, el primero: "Michael Brecker" (1987), y algunas hermosas joyas a lo largo del camino, estoy eligiendo dos ahora: "80 /81" (1980), de Pat Metheny y "Wilderness" (1996), de Tony Williams.
Se que es una gran pérdida para su familia y amigos, mi cariño para todos ellos, para el resto de nosotros, la hermosa música que deja como un maravilloso legado.
Gracias por la música Michael Brecker, de todo corazón.

A great musician, and a gifted saxophone player. Since the old days with Joni Mitchell or Steps Ahead (to name just a few, his career it's outstanding), and even before, to his albums as leader, the first one: "Michael Brecker" (1987), and some beautiful gems along the way, I'm just picking two now: Pat Metheny's "80 /81" (1980) and Tony Williams's "Wilderness" (1996).
I know it's a big loss for his family and friends, my love for all of them, for the rest of us, the beautiful music he left behind as a wonderful legacy.
Thank you for the music Michael Brecker, with all my heart.
