Tony’s Latin Jazz trio takes a unique approach to traditional Cuban and Brazilian song forms by blending in modern jazz stylings. This results in distinct interpretations of Cuban son, timba, boleros, Brazilian baião, choro, samba and bossa nova, as well as latin-influenced renditions of classic jazz repertoire.
