Synopsis "Retratos de jazz (in Spanish)"

Todo lo que siempre has querido saber sobre Murakami y el jazz, contado por el propio autor. Haruki Murakami regentó durante años un club de jazz, llamado Peter Cat, antes de dedicarse a tiempo completo a la escritura: sin duda, al abrir este volumen el lector tendrá la sensación de haberse sentado a una de las mesas del local mientras el propio Murakami le cuenta anécdotas y pormenores de las canciones que se escuchan, en un tono confidencial, cálido y entusiasta. La pasión del escritor japonés por el jazz le llevó sin duda a escribir este libro compuesto por cincuenta y cinco retratos de músicos de jazz, acompañados de una ilustración del artista japonés Wada Makoto y de un comentario sobre un álbum de cada músico. Gracias a Murakami, cada «entrada» se convierte en una pequeña y deliciosa historia, en un fragmento de memoria autobiográfica, en consejos a la hora de escuchar a un intérprete, o en frescas pinceladas para describir a un artista o una época. Así, desde el mítico Chet Baker, hasta Ella Fitzgerald, por el libro desfilan grandes figuras como Billie Holiday, Duke Ellington, Bill Evans o Art Pepper. Sobre Música, sólo música: «Una experiencia musical y vital.» Diego Gándara, El Mundo «Hay libros que te llevan a otros libros. Este te lleva a discos.» Abc «Un recorrido vibrante por las más bellas melodías y los mayores intérpretes del repertorio clásico.» El Cultural «Una delicia.» La Voz de Galicia

Extraordinario para los amantes del Jazz. Mientras leo escucho las diversas melodías recomendadas. Sólo lo había hecho con libros de pintura. Lo he recomendado.
