Luis Ramón Valle Sánchez is a Cuban jazz pianist and composer. His “The Time Is Now” is probably Ramón’s most personal album so far. 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.His inspiration for “The Time Is Now” came from watching music videos with his children; Dayla, 8, and Fabio, 11, but also from his musical heritage in Cuba and his life in Europe. Two of the eleven compositions on this album are dedicated to his parents, who he both lost in 2017 within a very short period of time. A very special collaboration with his long time friend and colleague Roy Hargrove also gives this album a personal dimension. To use Ramón’s own words:“We’re like brothers. We feel what we’re playing. I am very happy that finally our friendship and admiration for each other is recorded in music, on this CD”. “The Time Is Now” is all about being in the present, living in the here and now and connecting with each other. Ramón compares life with a big symphonic orchestra: in order to create the greatest sound, you need all the instruments to work together. In order to create the greatest experiences in life, we need to work together to make it happen, right here, right now. The Time Is Now!
