An Evening of Wine and Jazz - Join us for a free wine tasting courtesy of 109 Cheese and Wine in the lobby at 7:15pm!

Four time Grammy Award winner, as well as winner of 6 Billboard Awards and an Emmy, Arturo Sandoval is one of the world’s most  brilliant and prolific jazz trumpet players of our time.

Sandoval has recently been seen by millions in the Grammy Awards performing with pop-phenomenon Justin Timberlake. Arturo Sandoval is fluent in at least four musical languages.  He can burn through an Afro-Cuban groove, tear up a bebop tune, soar over a Mozart concerto and sooth you with a luscious ballad; with equal power and grace.

Granted political asylum in July 1990 and US citizenship in 1999, Sandoval and his family now call Miami, Florida home.  A protégé of the legendary jazz master Dizzy Gillespie, 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. 

His versatility can be heard on recordings with everyone from Dizzy Gillespie, Woody Herman, Woody Shaw, Michel Legrand, Bill Conti, and Stan Getz to Johnny Mathis, Frank Sinatra, Paul Anka, Rod Stewart and Alicia Keys amongst many others

Ticket Price $50
