Malagueña - Pink Martini | Live from Portland 2005

Pink Martini is on tour in 2022! Tickets are on sale now at:
pinkmartini.com...
Excerpted from Pink Martini's concert DVD release "Discover the World," this performance was filmed live in concert at the Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall in Portland Oregon on December 31, 2005. "Malagueña," by the great Cuban composer Ernesto Lecuona, has long been a concert staple for Pink Martini. This version was arranged by bandleader Thomas Lauderdale, and features Thomas on the piano, along with Robert Taylor on the trombone. The song often opens Pink Martini concerts on tour, and has never been recorded in the studio by the band, though another composition by Lecuona, "Andalucia", was featured on Pink Martini's debut album "Sympathique."

As a huge fan of Malagueña over many decades, I have to say this is one the best renditions ever.

THE BEST version of this song I ever listened... Huge thanks to Thomas Lauderdale... You are not only the best but a master even a genius of this outstanding musical genre. I can not stop listening to your music everyday.

[@Earaem]

I think the performance of Thomas Lauderdale on this piece is one of the most underappreciated things in the world

[@Earaem]

On the other hand, though, this was only uploaded 2 months ago!

Thomas Lauderdale is talented and amazing on just so many levels. Up until just a few weeks ago I had never heard of Pink Martini. He, his band and his many guest vocalists should be household names. Now that I have "found" this wonderful group of musicians, they are "mine" for life. Thomas Lauderdale is genius--pure solid gold!!!

[@melkarr]

Thanks for this wonderful piece of art. Just one remark. Ernesto Lecuona was Born in Cuba in 1895, when Cuba was part of Spain. He died in Tenerife, Spain in the sixties. His nationality was Spanish.

To play a masterful piece of this kind, this well, you have to be a master at your musical trade. The members of the Pink Martini band are simply that. Bravo!!

[@FirstnameLastname-gl1hh]

First time I heard this piece was 1972 on album 'everything you wanted to hear on the moog', fast forward to now, this performance is absolutely amazing! Bravo to all the musicians

I am totally amazed by the pianist who is a real genius of the keyboard. Thank you.

In these times of pandemic and civil unrest, I like to slip away with Pink Martini to some beautiful place, and dream of what can be again

[@jameswedel6916]

I myself am from Portland and have enjoyed Pink Martini ever since I first heard one of their CDs. When I heard of Lawrence having the concert I wanted to go to it but as always it was on a day I couldn’t go. One of these days I will go and enjoy them… I hope.

[@manueltran1964]

Long time Pink Martini fan here. I had the pleasure of attending their concert in Clearwater, Florida a few years back. And I can tell you this -- to my untrained ears, and with my eyes closed, I would be hard pressed to tell one performing pianist from the next. But, with Thomas Lauderdale, his playful attitude behind the keys and his obvious joy of playing and performing is that "x-factor" that makes his performances so endlessly watchable. The way he emotes while playing is unlike any other I've seen.

[@tengds]

Superb! Fantastic! Stupendous! I'm running out of adjectives! Thomas Lauderdale is a genius in musical arrangements!

Amazing! It reminded me very much of the 101 Strings rendition. Please find the time to do Granada. There's nothing I like more in music than to listen to Malaguena followed by Granada. I think the two pieces go together like bread and butter.

Pink Martini was scheduled to perform in Vancouver, BC on April 13, 2020 however, due to the pandemic will be re-scheduled for a future date. Great disappointment here however, no complaints as everyone is well. Sure hope they play "Malaguena" when we do have the opportunity to hear their great music.
