The young founder and bandleader Laura “Beatriz” Argudin (Cuba, 27) aims to share and further develop her musical tradition in the Netherlands.
As the youngest member of the Peruchin jazz dynasty, expect energetic Cuban Latin jazz music from her, a number of classics but also her own repertoire.
With the band BEATRIZ, Laura has managed to attract a number of other young talents – who already have recognition and experience with guest appearances with international top bands -:
Laura Argudin- piano
Patricia Mancheño (bass guitar)
Maarten Combrink- trombone
Steven Brezet (percussion)
Special guest: Jay Kaloce!
Jose Carlos Sánchez (Jay Kalo) was born in Havana (Cuba) on September 15, 1997. He began his musical career at the age of 10 and studied percussion at the Cuban National Art School (ENA).
He obtained first place in the International Drum Festival in Cuba, on two consecutive occasions.
At only 17 years old, his first trip was to New York, to perform with the “Big Band Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra” where he met and played with Wynton Marsalis.
When he finished his studies, he began to play and record with many national and international artists, such as Alain Pérez (album “El cuento de la buena pipa”), Omara Portuondo (“Barranquijazz” jazz festival, Colombia), Maria del Mar Bonet (“Ultramar” tour) and among others.
