Arturo O’Farrill — a seven-time Grammy winner who DownBeat Magazine calls "one of our greatest living pianists" — has long been building on the substantial legacy of his father, legendary Havana-born bandleader Chico O’Farrill. His Afro Latin Jazz Ensemble is an octet of top-flight musicians devoted to honoring the many pioneers of Latin jazz while also pushing the style forward in exciting directions.
