Arturo Sandoval to Perform Live in Athens on May 10

Arturo SandovalArturo Sandoval, a Cuban jazz trumpeter, pianist and composer, is coming to Greece on Sunday, May 10, for one performance at Gazarte, central Athens.
Sandoval began studying classical trumpet at the age of twelve, but it didn’t take him long to catch the excitement of the jazz world. He has since evolved into one of the world’s most acknowledged guardians of jazz trumpet and flugel horn, as well as a renowned classical artist, pianist and composer.
A student of the legendary jazz master Dizzy Gillespie, who found him in the slums of Cuba in 1970, was so impressed with the talent and personality of the 21-year young musician, who placed him under his protection, giving him the opportunity to travel in Europe and the U.`S.
He is one of the most dynamic and vivacious live performers of our time, and has been seen by millions at the Oscars performing with Celine Dion and at the Grammy Awards with Justin Timberlake. He also performed at the Billboard Awards with Alicia Keys
Sandoval has been awarded 10 Grammy Awards, six Billboard Awards and an Emmy. Sandoval is also the 2013 recipient of the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
His compositions can also be heard on the soundtracks of films “Havana,” “Random Heart,” “Mambo Kings” among others.
