“Mr Sandoval's Playing is Spectacular” New York Times
“ He's one of the Best “ Dizzy Gillespie
6 Time Grammy Award winning jazz trumpeter ARTURO SANDOVAL, a protégé of the legendary jazz master Dizzy Gillespie, is touring Australia in June 2013. Cuban-born Sandoval has evolved into one of the world’s most acknowledged guardians of jazz trumpet and flugel horn, as well as a renowned classical artist, pianist and composer.
A subject of a movie based on his life, “For Love or Country” starring Andy Garcia, Sandoval’s virtuoso technical ability or his specialty in high notes gives us the opportunity to enjoy the diversity of his music, through his compositions from the most straight ahead jazz, Latin jazz or classical. He is recognised as one of the most brilliant, multifaceted and renowned musicians of our time.
Arturo Sandoval’s versatility can be heard on recordings with everyone from Dizzy Gillespie, Woody Herman, Woody Shaw, Michel Legrand, Bill Conti and Stan Getz to John Williams and the Boston Pops, and in the Super Bowl with Tony Bennet and Patti LaBelle plus Johnny Mathis, Frank Sinatra, Paul Anka, Rod Stewart and Alicia Keys amongst many others. Arturo Sandoval is truly a prominent and legendary musician.
Great show. Great side musicians too. How ver, the noise level in the casino during the concert was distracting. It certainly bothered the performers. Other than that It was great !!
It was wonderful. I went with 4 friends, we had a "ladies Night Out" It was better than I expected. I didn't know that Arturo not only plays the trumpet, he plays the piano and the kettle drums.the whole band is very professional!! LOVED IT!
Venue at Aliante Hotel is perfect. Intimate size room. We sat in very comfortable booth for four people. Room also has two large screens. Enjoyed Arturo Sandoval choices of music. Each band member has a solo performance.
I had been wanting to see Arturo for years. Finally got to go, and must say I was a little disappointed. I was expecting more of his Latin fusion style sounds, instead I had to endure an excessive amount of jazz which I really am not a fan of. I left early.
Personal setting, excellent sound, amazing musicians.
Arturo Sandoval and his band are phenomenal! I can't find words to adequately describe their energy, talent, creativity, etc. Definitely go!! Arturo has it all - so talented and versatile.
Arturo and his group were unbelievable. You could tell how much they enjoyed performing together. An incredible evening it was.
The Cabot is a beautiful, historic and intimate venue. Arturo is arguably one of the best trumpet players in the world today. He's a great showman, a pleasure to watch, and I recommend enough that see him perform if you can!
Loved it, I would like to have updates of next event
Arturo Sandoval is one of the best musician in the world , it was an honor for me !!
It was an amazing performance and I hope Sandoval will perform again in Tucson
Mr. Sandoval's highly energized performance of Latin Jazz with his own group and the TSO, as well as the beautiful trumpet concerto, made for an exciting musical evening. Encore, please!
Could never ask for a better show, it was more than I expected.
Arturo Sandoval is one of the most talented jazz artists I have ever heard - so different from a "smooth jazz artist" - he's the real thing! I have never heard any other modern day trumpet player sound so clear and distinct - I was completely blown away. Mr. Sandoval is multi-talented; he played several instruments during the concert and he has a lovely singing voice. If you have the chance, you must watch this wonderful performer at least once in your lifetime - a true treasure of the jazz world!
Lots of good music in a beatiful and confortable venue.
We went to the Balboa to see Pancho Sanchez. He played seven songs and each song was wonderful. When he closed his hour, during intermission we left so I cannot rate Arturo Sandoval-did not stay. Just came for Pancho Music.
Enjoyable concert, some amazing playing by Arturo and his band. There were some sound problems with feedback that temporarily affected the show. But, overall an enjoyable evening of Jazz.
We were not very familiar with Mr. Sandoval's work. We were wowed by his ability to excel on trumpet and piano as well as add some drums and percussion to the mix. A very enjoyable show.
I knew that Arturo Sandoval was a great trumpeter, but I didn't know that he was so versatile. Piano, keyboards, drums, and singing also.
Mr. Sandoval and his band met and exceeded our expectations. He is not only a uniquely talented and versatile musician, but a true entertainer as well.
