GATO BARBIERI’s Fenix is a sonic journey through the heart of jazz fusion, with each track boasting a vibrant energy that is both exhilarating and soul-stirring. From the moment the first saxophone notes hit your ears, you'll be transported to a world where the groove never ends and the music never stops.
Barbieri’s masterful saxophone playing takes center stage on this album, weaving in and out of complex rhythms and melodies with the finesse of a seasoned pro.

About the artist
Gato Barbieri
Gato Barbieri was the Argentinian jazz saxophonist whose music was as wild and free-flowing as his trademark shock of curly hair. His career spanned over five decades, with Barbieri making his mark on the international jazz scene with his fiery and passionate playing style. Born in Buenos Aires in 1932, Barbieri began playing music at a young age and quickly established himself as a talented and innovative saxophonist. In the 1960s, he made the move to New York City, where he became a key figure in the avant-garde jazz movement, collaborating with the likes of Don Cherry and Carla Bley. Barbieri's breakthrough moment came in 1972 with the release of his album "Last Tango in Paris," which featured his evocative and emotive saxophone playing on the film's soundtrack. The album catapulted Barbieri to international fame and established him as a leading figure in the jazz world. Known for his distinctive blend of traditional jazz, Latin rhythms, and avant-garde experimentation, Barbieri's music was as unpredictable and exciting as the man himself. His live performances were legendary for their intensity and energy, with Barbieri's saxophone solos weaving in and out of intricate melodies and blistering improvisations. Sadly, Gato Barbieri passed away in 2016, leaving behind a rich musical legacy that continues to inspire and influence musicians around the world. His innovative approach to jazz and his fearless creative spirit have cemented his status as a true icon of the genre. Gato Barbieri may be gone, but his music lives on, a testament to his enduring legacy in the world of jazz.
