In MANO A MANO, Grammy winner Michel Camilo, returns to his moest effective setting, the trio, but with a twist, using congas and small percussion instead of trap drums. Featuring longtime friends, master conguero Giovanni Hidalgo and bassist Charles Flores, Michels trio creates a lighter, more open sound, still powerful, yet also with a certain sweet mango-flavored lyricism that proves to be perfect for a wide ranging repertoire that includes eight original compositions and three standards.
