Jazz guitarist David Becker’s new album, “Leaving Argentina”, is inspired by his journeys through the land of the gauchos. It’s his 10th album in a 20-year career. Top writer Roger Willemsen called him “one of the best jazz guitarists of all times”, and journalists have called him a “poet of the guitar”.

Becker was born in Ohio and has played support for Miles Davis, Chick Corea and The Yellowjackets, among many others. Becker is also a music theory author, who teaches at music schools from Maastricht to Los Angeles.

This ensemble, with bass Bolle Diekmann, percussionist Bruce Becker and Daria Polonara as guest on Bandoneon provide the perfect basis for Becker's elegant guitar playing. With his warm, mature tone, his fine phrasings and a melodious diversity, exciting atmospheres and high-definition rhythms.
