Paris Pan Jam was recorded in France in 2009 when the band did a five-week tour of Europe, and originally released in France this year when the band returned to Europe for two months from May through July.
Last year Pamberi was offered the opportunity to record at Le Sax Studios in Acheres, Paris, while they were on tour. Fifteen songs from the band’s extensive repertoire were recorded and mixed at Le Sax. It was mastered at Martin Raymond Studios, St. Ann’s, Trinidad.
Ten tracks were eventually used for the production. Paris Pan Jam features Pamberi's sterling performances and interpretations of compositions by Stevie Wonder and Pat Metheny (USA), Ludwig Van Beethoven (Germany), William Cepeda (Puerto Rico), and Aldwyn Roberts (Lord Kitchener) and Andre Tanker (Trinidad & Tobago). Original music works by Pamberi’s Brian Villafana - Musical Director, Cheo Cato, captain of the orchestra, and senior band member Reon Patterson, are part of the compilation.
