Few artists embody the brilliance and spirit of jazz like Arturo Sandoval.

Fusing bebop Afro-Cuban rhythms and his own boundless imagination he has built a career that spans decades and has earned him multiple Grammy Awards an Emmy and the Presidential Medal of Freedom.

“Born into poverty in Cuba and held back by his government he risked everything to share his gifts with the world. In the decades since this astonishing trumpeter pianist and composer has inspired audiences in every corner of the world and awakened a new generation of great performers. He remains one of the best ever to play.” ~ President Barack Obama
