Since moving back to New York, Kimson's horizons have continued to expand: in the past ten years he has toured regularly in Europe, Asia, Australia, South America, Canada and the Caribbean, as well as throughout the US.
Besides seven years and five CDs with Johnny Almendra and Los Jovenes del Barrio, Kimson has also performed and recorded with Brazilian vocalists Astrud Gilberto, Bebel Gilberto, Ana Caram and Gabriela Anders; the Latin jazz groups of Patato Valdés, Bobby Sanabria, Luis Bonilla and Ray Vega; and American artists such as Blood, Sweat & Tears and Joan Osborne.
He has also recently arranged a symphonic suite for the late Tito Puente, and performed on Broadway in Paul Simon's musical "The Capeman". |
