RUBIM DE TOLEDO ON APPLE MUSIC

“And then, from this super special soiree with dear friends, I got a Rubim de Toledo (The Gap) gift CD. What is the language? - Jazz. I confess that when I heard the answer I thought, ‘Come on, listen to another handful of standards!’ ... I was surprised. The CD is imaginative. Original pieces, AND most importantly, it has ‘IDENTITY’. Does not replicate anyone. … The Gap is really the gap; the best. Wonderful. A trip. I recommend.” (Translated from Portuguese) – CD Review, Gumbe Music, Sao Paulo, Brasil, 2019 by Carlos Gomes

"Bassist and composer Rubim de Toledo must be one of Alberta’s busiest and most
accomplished musicians ... De Toledo fuses the rhythmic styles of Latin American music
nd post-war American jazz evoking, Heitor Villa-Lobos, contemporary salsa, Charlie Parker

and John Coltrane – while achieving something entirely fresh ... (jazz scene) abounds in

performers with virtuosic technique. The eternal challenge is to innovative material that is

thoughtful, challenging, accessible, listenable and enjoyable. Rubim de Toledo’s The River

is all of that." - CD Review from Legacy Magazine, Winter 2009 by Ron Chalmers
