Ignacio Berroa Quartet\u00a0 –\u00a0 Cole Auditorium, Greenwich\u00a0 –\u00a0 January 30, 2011<\/p>\n
Two gigs in one month is awesome, so hats off to Greenwich Library.\u00a0 Berroa is from Cuba, has stateside lineage including Dizzy’s band.\u00a0 I did my best with his head partly obscured by the crash cymbal.\u00a0 And not the only problem!\u00a0 Pianist Ridl bobbed and weaved enough so that there were 4 false starts on him, I eventually just gave up getting the instrument into his sketch.\u00a0 Later, an embarrassing paper “malfunction” ( a tear) with bassist Moring’s sketch page, mostly patched up in the post-scan photoshop cleanup. \u00a0Furthermore, there was some confusion about the correct spelling of his name! \u00a0When it rains it pours. \u00a0Being in Greenwich on the weekend was also a good opportunity for me & Toots to go use the various gift coupons she had received, for a dinner on the Avenue (Pasta Vera) and also some baked goods (Crumb’s – outrageously rich stuff).\u00a0 Satiation!<\/p>\n
