Birthday Bash for Buyu Ambroise Come Celebrate

It's time to party! Celebrate the birthnight of Buyu Ambroise!

Join Jean Caze, The Blues in Red Band, and Solomon's Porch as we party with Buyu Haitian Style. A night of good Haitian Jazz surrounded by well wishers!

Buyu Ambroise:
Buyu Ambroise was born in Haiti's national capital, Port-au-Prince. After a brief stay in the Republic of Congo as a child, Buyu has resided in the United States for over 35 years. Buyu was drawn to the saxophone at a young age, experimenting with the instrument as as a high school student in Brooklyn, New York during the 1970s, a fertile period for both Haitian music and American jazz. His passion for jazz music led him to study with jazz legends such as Frank Foster, Jimmy Owens, and John Lewis.

Coming from a jazz perspective, Buyu has revealed a natural relationship between the complex polyrhythmic structures in both the North American form and the Afro-Caribbean sound of traditional Haitian music. This fusion is the birth of a new musical style that encompasses the two and sustains the mix effortlessly. Although this subgenre of World Jazz is considered cutting edge, Buyu's recordings and live performances are executed with a spirit and level of mastery that invoke a gentle blend of harmonies that have matured on Haitian and American stages for generations.
