Summer on the Hudson: Sunset Sounds
Friday, July 11, 2025
7:00 p.m.–8:30 p.m.
The Jazz Foundation of America presents spirited jazz concerts in West Harlem Piers, featuring Joaquin Pozo y la Clave Suena.
Originally from Havana, percussionist Joaquin Pozo has been called “El Pulpo” (The Octopus) because his two-handed conga style rivals the eight hands of four drummers. Pozo brings 35 years of experience and profound versatility to his vibrant performances.
Having founded the rumba-infused Havana group Jazz Millenium and performed on four continents, in recent years he has been a welcome addition to the musical landscape of Harlem. An innovator in Latin styles from rumba to jazz, Pozo leads this five-piece ensemble on journeys through Afro-Cuban rhythms.
