El Violin Latino, Vol. 3: Los Soñadores

Every now and then, a project comes around that makes you contemplate not just the music but the world in which we live. Gregor Huebner’s El Violin Latino Volume 3 – Los Soñadores (“The Dreamers”) is one of these productions. If it were evaluated only on the musical merits, it would be considered a high mark, one of the most virtuosic and approachable latin jazz albums of recent years. Paired with its forward-thinking message on immigration, Huebner has crafted a meditation that explores not just harmonic changes – but changing our political conversation so that we find more harmony with each other.
