Fiesta Jazz brings you the joy and the flavour of Latin music combined with the virtuosity of jazz musicians.
Since October 1999 Fiesta Jazz is playing Latin Jazz from traditional, instrumental and vocal Afro-Caribbean, Spanish and Brazilian Jazz, as well as Latin-influenced fusion played by non-Latin musicians. Also, fusions of jazz and Latin American folk rhythms.
Saul!!! What a joy to have you on the airwaves. I learn so much about world music from your show. It's just a wealth of information. I'll never forget when you played SUSAN PEREIRA!! And then a few weeks ago you introduced me to Bill O'Connell's Triple Play!! I had to stop the car so I could write down the name of the Artist. What a great song- such a brilliant show! Thank you! x V
