Thanks for visiting ExodusToJazz.com. I am excited about the upcoming three dates that complete the Fall line up. The LatinHeat mini-series will present examples of the fusion of American jazz with Brazilian, Cuban and Peruvian musical traditions.

The appearance of legendary Candido Camero with the Freddy Colon Quartet is a special moment I encourage you to enjoy. Born in 1921, Candido performs with the energy and enthusiasm of a musician half his age. He has performed live with the premier artists of jazz history including Charlie Parker, Dizzy Gillespie and Miles Davis.

Candido's long list of recorded work includes sessions with Lena Horne, Billy Taylor, Buddy Rich, Art Blakey, Count Basie, Elvin Jones, George Shearing, Lionel Hampton, Stan Getz, Wes Montgomery, Woody Herman, Doc Severinson, Marian McPartland, Lalo Schifrin. Mongo Santamaria, Tito Puente and Antonio Carlos Jobim. Few musicians performing today represent such a direct link to so many jazz greats.

I look forward to welcoming you to Latin Heat! Check out the “Ticket” tab for details on the significant savings available with the LatinHeat discount packages.
