Gil to perform with Arturo Sandoval at the Bellas Artes in Mexico City on Friday November 18




Arturo Sandoval is a gifted musician who is "fluent in at least four musical languages. He can burn through an Afro-Cuban groove, tear up a bebop tune, soar over a Mozart concerto and sooth you with a luscious ballad; with equal power and grace". He is the protégé of jazz legend Dizzy Gillespie who became the first musician to bring Latin influences into American jazz. Arturo Sandoval has 4 Grammy Awards and continues to thrill audiences with his unique and sensational sound.

As you can imagine Gil is thrilled to be invited once again to be featured as his special guest at El Palacio de Bellas Artes with the Big Band Musitec. Please make your plans for this dynamic evening of music in Mexico City on Friday, November 18th at 8pm.
