Roxana Amed - Becoming Human (2024)

Roxana Amed, Argentine-American jazz vocalist and composer, presents "Becoming human" her 11th album produced with the "New Jazz Works" grant by Chamber Music America. With her brilliant ensemble, the three-times Latin Grammy nominee producer shares 10 songs describing poetically and musically the human journey from birth through childhood and youth, through the wilderness of building an identity to the loneliness of an artist, till we return to the silence. These pieces were written by Amed and arranged by Martin Bejerano, Mark Small and Kendall Moore, a team that has been collaborating together for many years now collecting great local and international reviews.
