Visions of Music - World Jazz invites the viewer on a journey to the roots of music, introducing the enormous impact that traditional music from around the world has had on contemporary jazz. This program features legendary musicians such as BB King, Dino Saluzzi, Tito Puente, Carlos Santana, Zawinul Joe, Manu Dibango, Abdullah Ibrahim, as well as new generation representatives such as Nicholas Payton, Cyro Baptista, and Don Byron. This episode of the Visions of Music series features Romero Lubambo and Cyro Baptista, two Brazilian jazz musicians who emigrated to the United States in the 1980s. The Lubambo guitar playing marries the style and rhythms of his native Brazil and his ease with the American tradition of jazz to compose a new distinctive sound. In the wake of the explosion in the popularity of world music, Baptista has been called to play in studio and on tour with some of the biggest names in popular music, such as David Byrne, Dr. John, Wynton Marsalis, and even Jay-Z.
