She is well known in many New York circles for her wealth of experience and cultural knowledge and awareness. She has touched on many projects involving progressive approaches to ensemble playing and Beyond Standards serves as one such accomplishment. Teamed up with master percussionist Wilson "Chembo" Corniel, this duo of excitement will leave lasting impressions in your mind and ear. Joined with Andrea and Chembo are a line up of NY's most sought after personel such as Hilton Ruiz and Steve Turre just to name a few. The rhythm section sustains it's energy with the most worthy drummer for the late Ray Barretto , Vince Cherico. I invite you to enjoy this most musical of projects in the contemporary Latin Jazz niche. Martin Windham Jazz and Latin Jazz columnist   Buy Digital Tracks at Itunes click here
