ARTURO SANDOVAL

A protégé of the legendary jazz master Dizzy Gillespie, Arturo Sandoval was born in Artemisa, a small town in the outskirts of Havana, Cuba, on November 6, 1949, just two years after Gillespie became the first musician to bring Latin influences into American Jazz. Sandoval began studying classical trumpet at the age of twelve, but it didn’t take him long to catch the excitement of the jazz world. He has since evolved into one of the world’s most acknowledged guardians of jazz trumpet and flugelhorn, as well as a renowned classical artist, pianist and composer.

He is one of the most dynamic and vivacious live performers of our time, and has been seen by millions at the Oscars, at the Grammy Awards, and the Billboard Awards.

The Jazz Voyager

Since it’s winter in most of America ther’s no reason to put up the scarves, hats, gloves and coats that have been keeping this Jazz Voyager warm and healthy. Bundled up and heading back to the Gateway City for the ambience and music at Jazz St. Louis. Set within the Harold & Dorothy Steward Center for Jazz, the venue has grown since its humble beginnings in 1995.

This week I’ll be enjoying a favorite vocalist of mine, nine time Grammy nominated Tierney Sutton for her debut at the venue. She is joined by pianist Christian Jacob, bassist Trey Henry and the young drum phenom CV Dashiell III.

Jazz St. Louis is situated at 3536 Washington Avenue, St. Louis, MO 63103. For more information visit https://jazzstl.org.
