Largely based here in New York, Herrera has recently put out a new album, called Aire, which features twelve songs and includes her new compositions, commissioned by Chamber Music America's New Jazz Works, and jewels from the Great Latin American Songbook, in a kind of communal response to the isolation of the pandemic, when most of the songs were written. On the album, the works are performed by her jazz trio augmented by a 21-piece orchestra under the artistic direction of Eric and Colin Jacobsen. \nFrom the Soundcheck Podcast series, Herrera, her trio, and members of the Brooklyn-based orchestra called The Knights present some of these jazz songs, rich with drama and feeling, in-studio. Plus, hear some selections from the record, Aire, where elements of jazz, classical chamber orchestration, and Latin music are woven tightly together.  – Caryn Havlik\nProgram #4815, Magos Herrera From Soundcheck (First aired 11/14/2023)\nARTIST: Magos HerreraWORK: The Healer [1:00]RECORDING: AireSOURCE: SunnysideINFO: https://magosherrera.bandcamp.com/album/aire\nARTIST: Magos Herrera, Members of The KnightsWORK: Aire [5:02]RECORDING: Live on Soundcheck, August 2023SOURCE: This performance not commercially available.INFO: https://magosherrera.bandcamp.com/album/aire\nARTIST: Magos HerreraWORK: The Healer [5:19]RECORDING: AireSOURCE: SunnysideINFO: https://magosherrera.bandcamp.com/album/aire\nARTIST: Magos Herrera, Members of The KnightsWORK: The Calling [6:13]RECORDING: Live on Soundcheck, August 2023SOURCE: This performance not commercially available.INFO: https://magosherrera.bandcamp.com/album/aire\nARTIST: Magos Herrera, Dori Caymmi WORK: Samba em preludio [35]RECORDING: AireSOURCE: SunnysideINFO: https://magosherrera.bandcamp.com/album/aire\nARTIST: Magos Herrera, Dori Caymmi WORK: Gracias a la vida [5:15]RECORDING: AireSOURCE: SunnysideINFO: https://magosherrera.bandcamp.com/album/aire\nARTIST: Magos Herrera, Dori Caymmi WORK: Passarinhadeira [:32]RECORDING: AireSOURCE: SunnysideINFO: https://magosherrera.bandcamp.com/album/aire\nARTIST: Magos Herrera, Members of The KnightsWORK: Choro de Lua [5:53]RECORDING: Live on Soundcheck, August 2023SOURCE: This performance not commercially available.INFO: https://magosherrera.bandcamp.com/album/aire\nARTIST: Magos Herrera, Dori Caymmi WORK: Remanso [4:31]RECORDING: AireSOURCE: SunnysideINFO: https://magosherrera.bandcamp.com/album/aire\nWatch \"Aire\":\n\nWatch \"The Calling\":\n\nWatch \"Choro de Lua\":"}
