Fourteen-time Grammy and Latin Grammy winner Paquito D’Rivera is a woodwind improviser, bandleader, and accomplished composer who has spent a lifetime dissolving the barriers between musical genres. As co-founder of the group Irakere, he created a new mix of jazz, rock, and traditional Cuban music. And in his concert works, he has infused classical repertoire with the rhythms and sonorities of his native Cuba. In this concert, D’Rivera explores repertoire from his Jazz Meets the Classics recording, his sextet reimagining canonic works by Chopin, Beethoven, Mozart, and others.
