Jazz Appreciation Month 2022: Latin Jazz and the Spirit of Cachao López
This year, Jazz Appreciation Month will be exploring the crosspollination of Afro-Caribbean music and jazz leading into the formation of Latin jazz. One of the iconic figures recognized in the Afro-Caribbean music tradition was bassist, bandleader, composer, and co-creator of mambo Israel “Cachao” López. This year’s JAM poster featuring Cachao is from Duke Ellington School of the Arts senior visual arts student Francis Henry Cuadro.
