Eddie Palmieri Latin Jazz Band

Celebrating his 80th year, 10-time Grammy Award-winner and NEA Jazz Master Eddie Palmieri hosts a party for the ages featuring some of the finest musicians around. Regarded as one of the top pianists of the past 50 years, Palmieri is a celebrated bandleader, arranger and titan of salsa and Latin jazz. By skillfully fusing the rhythms of Puerto Rico with the melodic and harmonic complexity of his jazz influences — Thelonious Monk, Herbie Hancock and  McCoy Tyner — Palmieri has established himself as a musical innovator whose work is both bold and downright danceable.
