Saturday, September 12, 2015, New Jersey Performing Arts Center presents an unforgettable evening with the extraordinary salsa band El Gran Combo now featuring 10 time Grammy Winner Eddie Palmieri on piano with his orchestra!
During 50-plus years of performance, this legendary, 14-member salsa orchestra from Puerto Rico has sold more than 100 million records worldwide and shows no signs of slowing down.
Known as one of the finest pianists of the past half-century, Palmieri is a bandleader and composer who skillfully fuses the rhythm of his Puerto Rican heritage with the complexity of his jazz influences: Thelonious Monk, Herbie Hancock, McCoy Tyner and salsa bandleader Charlie Palmieri, his older brother. An NEA Jazz Master, he was the recipient of the 2013 Lifetime Achievement Award of the Latin Academy of Recording Arts & Sciences.
