Puertorriqueños en el Jazz (Resumen) Debido a su énfasis en la improvisación, la interpretación del Jazz requiere un alto nivel de conocimiento y virtuosismo; es música que por su calidad y complejidad se le conoce como la música clásica del siglo 20. Los músicos puertorriqueños han sido protagonistas de la historia de esta música desde sus comienzos en Nueva Orleans y otras ciudades en los Estados Unidos hace más de 100 años. 

 Rafael Hernández, junto a su hermano Jesús Hernández y más de una docena de puertorriqueños, llevaron el Jazz por primera vez a Europa con el Teniente James Reese Europe y los Harlem Hellfighters, la Orquesta de el Ejército de los Estados Unidos durante la Primera Guerra Mundial. 

 En la época de oro del Swing y las Big Band, cuando el Jazz llegó a ser la música popular de los estadounidenses, Juan Tizol y otros puertorriqueños aportaron su intelecto musical al éxito de éstas orquestas. Juan Tizol y Rogelio "Ram" Ramirez fueron los creadores de las composiciones Caravan y Lover Man, que hoy se consideran clásicos del Jazz (Jazz Standards) y que han sido interpretadas y grabadas por los mejores músicos de Jazz.

 Cuando el Jazz se reencuentra con la música Cubana y Latina, músicos puertorriqueños como Tito Rodríguez y Tito Puente fueron reconocidos Maestros de esta fusión llamada Latin Jazz, que revolucionó el panorama musical internacional. Desde la década de 1960 hasta el presente el Maestro y virtuoso bajista Eddie Gómez se ha destacado en varios estilos y ha grabado con los mejores intérpretes del Jazz, entre ellos el pianista Bill Evans. 

 A finales del siglo 20 nombres como William Cepeda, David Sánchez, y Miguel Zenón escriben otro capítulo importante fusionando el Jazz con elementos de la música folklórica puertorriqueña (Bomba, Plena, Música Jíbara). En el siglo 21 los jazzistas puertorriqueños continúan recibiendo reconocimientos y el futuro del Jazz en Puerto Rico parece estar en buenas manos con el surgimiento de jóvenes comprometidos con la educación, disciplina y excelencia musical.

En Boricua Jazz nos adentramos a la fascinante historia de los músicos que aportaron al desarrollo del Jazz Puertorriqueño.

Boricua Jazz se encuentra en su etapa de edición y solicitud de permisos de material fotográfico para su publicación a comienzos del año 2019.
