Grammy-winning bandleader, composer and pianist Arturo O'Farrill, son of the late Chico O'Farrill, has carried on his father's legacy as director of the Chico O'Farrill Afro Cuban Jazz Orchestra. He's also the founder and artistic director of the Afro Latin Jazz Orchestra, which has performed worldwide.
On this edition of Song Travels, Arturo O'Farrill and his ensemble — Carlo De Rosa on bass and Carlos Maldonado and Robert Quintero on percussion — perform "Not Now, Right Now" by Papo Vazquez and "Siboney" by Ernesto Lecuona. Host Michael Feinstein joins in for the standard "Once I Loved."
