Trains by EL ECO with Guillermo Nojechowicz

"Trains" is the third track of a new recording by EL ECO with Guillermo Nojechowicz. Puerto de Buenos Aires 1933 was inspired by a remnant of Guillermo Nojechowicz's family history, the passport that his grandmother carried when she fled Warsaw for Argentina in 1933 along with Nojechowicz's father, who was then a small boy. Crossing Europe by train, they left behind everything familiar to face the unknown Buenos Aires – a trip that spared them from the Holocaust, where so many others in their community later perished. The Latin Jazz Suite that chronicles their long, uncertain journey is the centerpiece of EL ECO's new recording: Puerto de Buenos Aires 1933.

One of the year’s most spellbinding releases.
