Eduardo (Coco) Alfonso : lead vocal, coros and guiro. Gerardo Rosales : congas, bongos, timbal, bell, maracas, guiro and coros. Guillaume Marcenac : piano. __________________________________________________________________________ In 2023, Guillaume and Gerardo met unexpectedly in a studio session. From that moment, everything changed. Guillaume, a jazz and classical pianist, had fallen in love with Latin jazz—its energy, rhythms, and soul. To him, it was truly inspiring. Gerardo, an Afro-Cuban and Caribbean music expert who had recorded with legendary pianists Bebo Valdés and Edy Martínez, immediately recognized Guillaume’s talent. Passionate about the piano himself, Gerardo started music by learning the instrument and developed a deep, personal connection with it. He loved how Guillaume’s compositions and playing conveyed genuine emotion and was excited to explore how their worlds could come together. During that session, a special chemistry sparked. Guillaume felt a profound connection to Latin jazz, and Gerardo saw the potential for something truly unique. They decided to form Charanjazz, bringing in talented musicians: Myrthe, a specialist in both classical and jazz violin; Patricia, an expert in jazz and Latin bass; and Eduardo, an authentic sonero from Havana whose voice embodies the soul of Latin music. Gerardo explains, “Charanga is a vibrant Cuban ensemble that performs chachachá, danzón, and traditional music. We wanted to honor that while fusing it with jazz’s harmonic language.” Guillaume adds, “Latin jazz speaks to me on a deep level. It’s storytelling through rhythm and melody. Creating Charanjazz was about capturing that magic—something rooted in tradition but alive with discovery.” This album is the culmination of that encounter—two artists from different worlds, united by mutual respect, passion, and a shared love for authentic, vibrant music. __________________________________________________________________________ Musical Production : Gerardo Rosales and Guillaume Marcenac Arranger : Guillaume Marcenac (Charanjazz, Comes a la casa, Marseillan Pachanga, Parrandavalse) Arranger : Myrthe van de Weetering (Mon ame, Jajaja) Arranger : Gerardo Rosales (Mambo para Gozarlo, Colinas de Bello Monte, Yo soy Cuba, Jajaja, Mon ame, La Francesa y el cubano) Recording Studios : Wedgeview Studios 26,27,28 May 2025, The Netherlands Studio engeneer : Roeland Jacobs Mixing : Udo Pannekeet and Gerardo Rosales Mastering : Udo Pannekeet Photos : Alex Schroder Bookings : www.lapetiteprincesse.org __________________________________________________________________________ Thanks to : Reinier and Linda Hanswijck, Madeleine and Wouter Dikker, André Gravel, Jeroen Kuiper, Paul Mees, Strandpaviljoen de Staat, Domaine de la Bellonette,Fleur, Florian and Marie-Christine Fabre de Roussac

Jurjen Donkers performed songs arranged by Guillaume Marcenac, with a latin/jazz, and french chanson flavour.<br /><br />Composer Lyricist: Ted Koehler<br />Composer Lyricist: Harold Arlen<br /><br />Guillaume Marcenac on Piano / Arrangements /Compositions<br />Jurjen Donkers on Vocals<br />Gerardo Rosales on Congas<br />Yussif Barakat on Doublebass<br />Jasper Hilgerink on Drums<br /><br />Ronald Bergman on Video<br /><br />About Jurjen Donkers<br />"What a beautiful voice you have”, Rita Reys responded after hearing Jurjen Donkers sing. She and other legendary interpreters of the Great American Songbook, such as Tony Bennett, Barbra Streisand and Frank Sinatra, would set the standard for his own singing. It is characterized by both a heartfelt interpretation of the lyrics as well as a great sense of timing. Or as pianist Peter Beets said recently: “This guy swings!”. The late bass player and record producer Ruud Jacobs commented: "He is a real talent."<br />Jurjen Donkers got into the world of jazz music at the age of 14 when he met Europe's First Lady of Jazz Rita Reys, who's personal assistent he was from 2004 till her passing in 2013. Through her he was introduced into the Dutch jazz scene. In recent years he shared the stage with well known artists and musicians such as Ruud Jacobs, Eric Ineke, Marjorie Barnes, Peter Beets, and Lex Jasper. He regularly performs with Robert Koemans, Vincent Koning, Cas Jiskoot and Francesca Tandoi, and recently sang as a guest soloist with the West Coast Big Band and the Harbour Jazz Band.<br />​<br />Besides his own projects Donkers has through the years been involved in organizing several events, such as Greetje Kauffeld's 60 Years On Stage tour, Eric Ineke's 70th birthday concert, a tribute concert for Rita Reys at the Amsterdam Concertgebouw in 2016, and the celebration of Ack van Rooyen's 90th birthday in 2020.
