Stanford Afro-Latin Jazz Ensemble
The acclaimed Stanford Afro-Latin Jazz Ensemble, directed by Murray Low, presents a concert featuring music that covers all aspects of the idiom – classic and modern salsa, timba, samba reggae, bossa nova, rumba jazz, free jazz, gospel singing, and more!
Established in 2008 by Grammy-nominated pianist Murray Low, the ensemble has emerged as one of the premier academic performing groups of its kind. As prior recipients of a prestigious SiCA (Stanford Institute for Creativity and the Arts) grant, SALJE has been afforded the opportunity to collaborate with several luminaries in the field of Afro-Latin music that have helped to elevate the ensemble's performance acumen, as well as aid in establishing Stanford as a vital West Coast center for Afro-Latin Jazz.
