Afro-Latin Jazz Orchestra with Arturo O'Farrill (John Abbott)Hot Hot Hot
Almost a decade ago, Latin jazz pianist Arturo O’Farrill collaborated with trumpeter and bandleader Wynton Marsalis for a concert at Lincoln Center. The seeds were planted for a long lasting musical relationship between O’Farrill and Marsalis that culminated in the formation of the Afro-Latin Jazz Orchestra at Jazz at Lincoln Center. O’Farrill and Marsalis both recognized that Latin Jazz was not just a subset of jazz; it was more of a sibling, a complementary partner. Today, Arturo O’Farrill joins us to discuss what Jazz at Lincoln Center’s new Frederick P. Rose Jazz Hall means to the Jazz community, what he has in store this coming year for the Afro-Latin Jazz Orchestra, and why he likens his life to living in an I Love Lucy sitcom.
