The second album as a leader from the Colombian guitarist (based in Buenos Aires, Argentina) is entitled "INTERSTICIOS" (ears&eyes Records, 2021). This elegant and sophisticated record work in which the expressive freedom of each artist coexists with high-quality instrumental work conforms to a particular sound world, deep, soft, and energetic, and impregnated with an excellent jazz language.
On this occasion, Enrique Peña presents us with a group in trio format with very particular instrumentation, especially for two reasons: the non-use of the drums and the use of the bass clarinet as a melodic instrument, with a wonderful performance by Inti Sabev. To complete the trio, the guitar and clarinet are joined by the flawless participation of double bassist Juan Bayón.
We could say that “INTERSTICIOS” is the product of a different search in the development and evolution of these great musicians. It is a palpable example of his growing musical creativity, accompanied by an impeccable and well-cared-for instrumental elaboration.
The album consists of eight musical pieces, seven composed by Enrique Peña and one by Inti Sabev. Chosen with a good disposition, they tell us a story that reveals exquisite musical moments both in the improvisations and in the arrangements of the works.
When listening to “INTERSTICIOS”, we realize indisputably that we are dealing with high-quality work, both sound, and artistic.
