mikeweil Posted June 23, 2021 Report Share Posted June 23, 2021 I just learned that Brazilian trombonist Raul de Souza passed away in Paris, where he was living for many years, on June 13, 2021, at age 86. His latest album was released only a few months ago: https://rauldesouza.net Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazzbo Posted June 23, 2021 Report Share Posted June 23, 2021 Sad news. He was a maestro of the trombone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JSngry Posted June 23, 2021 Report Share Posted June 23, 2021 Rightly or wrongly, the first thing I think of when I hear the name, are these (because that's the first time I heard the name): Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HutchFan Posted June 23, 2021 Report Share Posted June 23, 2021 NOTHING wrong with those cuts. You could easily do a helluva lot worse! My mind immediately goes to this disc: Released on Milestone in 1975 -- just like Sonny's Nucleus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
felser Posted June 24, 2021 Report Share Posted June 24, 2021 I also think of (and like and own) that album, plus his work with Flora Purim on Milestone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazzbo Posted June 24, 2021 Report Share Posted June 24, 2021 Speaking of Flora and Raulzinho this is fantastic and his playing makes it for me: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BFrank Posted June 25, 2021 Report Share Posted June 25, 2021 I definitely remember him from listening to lots of Flora and Airto in the 70s. RIP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
