notes

Tony Marino (composer, pianist, leader) has created a loyal following and not all of his listeners are jazz enthusiast. His style seems to capture listeners from other genres continuously. Formerly known as Havana Heat, Tony continues to define his music with the area's top musicians, under the new name Latin Jazz Sounds. This magnetic band performs both original compositions and jazz standards using various Latin styles of music: samba, bossa nova, frevo, tango, montuno, bolero, be bop, swing and calypso.

His first cd "Tony Marino & Havana Heat: The Latin Jazz Project" was released January 1997. The cd debuted original jazz compositions using a variety of latin styles.

"Note For Note" with sixteen new original compositions was released in 1999. On this cd, Tony took a new approach. He wrote, composed and recorded all of the instruments used, himself. He literally recorded this cd note for note, hence the name!

"Samba De Say Party", released in 2001, is "Adventurous and exploratory in combining the elements of Brazilian jazz with those of bolero, swing, tango, funk and others". (Heidi Drockelman/Indie-Music)

"BROAD STREET"(2003), pays tribute to his "Philadelphia roots" again using familiar latin rythms. The varied Brazilian and Latin material that inspired it is respectfully treated, with energy levels revealing both commitment towards and understanding of their respective sensual and lively natures. It features seven Latinized offerings from Marino and one each from Paquito D' Rivera and Claudio Roditi -who are key personal and intellectual influences." (~ Javier Antonio Quinones Ortiz)

Tony's fifth cd, cleverly named "5" is an assortment of Jazz... Smooth , Modern, Odd Time, Bossa Nova, Waltz, Be Bop, Ballad, Samba, Organ Trio, and Blues. 5 surely has something for everyone!

Tony's NEWEST, "It's Not That Complicated", will capture you too! With 8 new compositions and 4 new arrangements... "It's Not That Complicated" final cut "I Have To Go" has you wishing that that just weren't true!

Also available is "Tony Marino's Latin Jazz Sounds" songbook which includes the sheet music of the orginal compositions (from Samba De Say Party, Note For Note, & The Latin Jazz Project) for C, Bb, and Eb instruments.

    author: Wendy Ross

    In December 2000 Tony released Samba De Say Party. This CD is Brazilian Jazz with most of the songs Sambas Marino combines Latin styles with a enough glitzy funk to fuel several parties. The title cut starts of as wild as carnival with a few primate calls thrown in for spice. The music then settles into well-orchestrated Latin dance music. The musicians have the same duality of control led fire as championship ballroom dancers. Tango, Rumba Marimba, Bossa Nova? No, Samba De Say Party! The sweet and mellow second cut, Chancery Place is dedicated to his new home. Minor Differences is repetitive yet with a slow building drama and a sweet melody that endears. Cut four, As Good As It Gets has the kind of melody that gets stuck in your head. All in all this is wonderful dance music. Get this CD and some dancing shoes and dance the night away.

    author: Carla Archuletta

    Samba De Say Party? showcases Tony Marino’s experimentation with various Latin flavors and textured beats. It’s easy listening in the positive sense of the term. This is Marino’s third release throughout his artistic journey and his pursuit is of a very personal, musical vision. Samba De Say Party?, is a rhythmic kaleidoscope of Brazilian jazz cleverly meshed with arresting melodies, and a well-crafted assortment of bossa nova, funk, ballad, swing, waltz, bolero and tango. Marino’s adult, lounge-friendly, self-produced effort is a satisfying piece of confectionery. The sultry compositions and arrangements complement Marino’s ability to translate the essence of Latin American music with inventive soundscapes. Musically, Samba De Say Party?, transcends genres with a percolating brew of classical jazz piano and Latin idioms. Marino’s arrangements are played with sophistication and ease at any tempo from the sassy, “Samba De Say Party,” to the upbeat grooves of, “Sylvana’s Tango, ” to the smooth piano sound of, “Stephanie’s Song.” Samba De Say Party? is a provocative listen that deserves wildest discovery.
