The pianist Ramón Valle has lived in the Netherlands for years. In 2006, he had long since returned to his native Cuba when he was asked to write a composition for classical guitarist Esther Steenbergen. He called the piece Molinas which means something like Mills. While he was composing he was inundated with memories of the Netherlands. He felt that the years he spent on Dutch soil clearly left their mark on the way he developed himself as a musician and artist. Thus the idea developed to release Flashes From Holland. It shows how a Cuban who at first does not speak the Dutch language feels, and is slowly becoming more and more established. The relaxed Cuban life collides with the hectic feeling of a metropolis like Amsterdam where tourists get in each other’s way, but slowly both cultures unite to form a steadfast feeling of habituation. Valle knows how to interpret this in a phenomenal way and enlisted the help of guitarist Jesse van Ruller for extra Dutch impulses.

A deeply musical and at the same time extra-musical principle becomes clear on this CD: the realization of good taste. The ten pieces on the CD resemble a gentle, hypnotizing flow.

“The two Valles effortlessly combine the subtleties of modern chamber music with jazz freedom and Afro-Caribbean feeling.” (Jazzthing, February / March 2017)

It’s time to wipe away the patina: Cuban music in 2015 has long since emancipated itself from the clichés of the Buena Vista Social Club and salsa parties. On the jazz terrain, the island has produced a wealth of creative and innovative forces that coherently and excitingly combine its Caribbean heritage with a sonic language that can be understood worldwide. At the forefront of this new generation of jazz is pianist Ramón Valle, who with his trio is now embarking on a major international career with his trio.

After the birth of my firstborn son, Fabio, I needed some moments of retreat. The direction of my life changed from being impulsive and spontaneous to a life that was better organized and a little bit more structured. Little did I know that this new phase in my life was the kick-start for a new way to compose my music. Approaching life and music differently created new sounds, new projects and eventually, this new album PLAYGROUND.

To continue, I would love to share some of my sentiments out of which the music on PLAYGROUND was born.

The title song Playground reminds me of the feeling of being surrounded by children. Little kids playing, running in all directions, crying and laughing… The sensation of a new life, the feeling of a new start, new ideas and new hope.

At the same time in El Reto I’m talking about the great challenge of life. These are crazy times and you have to be strong, your antennas have to be very sensitive to all that’s around you in order to feel in what direction ‘sopla el viento’. Feeling which way the wind blows so that you can always be prepared.

In Fabio you will meet Ramon the father. Me taking care of my son, making sure he’s safe, teaching him about life and the dangers of it, playing and singing to him from my deepest Cuban feelings and letting him experience our Cuban roots and traditions.

In Zwana I tell the story of the love of my life and the mother of my child. It’s a tribute to our love history in a waltz tempo.

With this new recording, Ramón Valle takes on the role of musical time traveler, as he experiences and interprets, from an up close and personal vantage, the music that is happening today from an up close and personal vantage.
