TERENCE BLANCHARD & PONCHO SANCHEZ: “CHANO Y DIZZY”

Inspired by the musical collaboration of Dizzy Gillespie and Chano Pozo in the 1940s, DSO Fred A. Erb Jazz Creative Director Chair and trumpeter Terence Blanchard and conguero Poncho Sanchez express “Latin jazz in perfect form” (Offbeat). Two modern masters in their own right, multi-Grammy Award-winners Blanchard and Sanchez make the ideal pair to recall, reimagine, and advance the powerful rhythms of the past.
