“Breathtaking, inventive array of Afro-Cuban jazz.” — LAist, 89.3FM
Mexican American pianist, composer, and bandleader Arturo O’Farrill is a towering figure in contemporary music, renowned for his genre-defying virtuosity, leadership, and unwavering commitment to social justice through music. A 6-time Grammy and 2-time Latin Grammy winner, O’Farrill is “one of our greatest living pianists” (Downbeat) as he bridges the gap between Latin rhythms, modern jazz, and contemporary composition - pushing boundaries while maintaining a profound connection to his roots.
