Venue:
Sixth & I – Sanctuary
Chucho Valdés Joe Lovano Quintet
- This event has passed.
It’s a match made in jazz heaven: Afro-Cuban piano legend, Irakere founder, and five-time Grammy-winner Jesús “Chucho” Valdés and the ever-versatile sax virtuoso and multiple-time DownBeat Jazz Artist of the Year Joe Lovano, co-leading a quintet featuring a stellar Cuban rhythm section.
As the New York Times put it, Valdés makes “the piano talk with great, hard, ringing chords and single notes like rapid-fire arrow shots.” For his part, “Joe Lovano is more than a dominant figure in jazz,” wrote the Wall Street Journal.
Washington Performing Arts performances at Sixth & I are made possible by the Abramson Family Foundation.
