CABARET TONIGHT IN MARYLAND: EDDIE PALMIERI'S LATIN JAZZ SEPTET AT BETHESDA BLUES

CABARET TONIGHT IN MARYLAND: EDDIE PALMIERI'S LATIN JAZZ SEPTET AT BETHESDA BLUES

Eddie Palmieri's Latin Jazz Septet will perform at BETHESDA BLUES & JAZZ SUPPER CLUB (7719 Wisconsin Avenue, Bethesda, MD - 240-330-4500) on Friday & Saturday, November 1st & 2nd at 8:30 pm. Eddie Palmieri, known for his charismatic power and bold innovative drive, has a musical career that spans over 50 years as a bandleader of Salsa and Latin Jazz orchestras. With a discography that includes 36 titles, Mr. Palmieri has been awarded nine Grammy Awards. In 2005, Mr. Palmieri received a series of prestigious awards: he received the Alice Tully African Heritage Award from City College, received the Harlem Renaissance Award and was inducted into both the Bronx Walk of Fame and the Chicago Walk of Fame. He also received the Lifetime Achievement Award from Urban Latino Magazine. He acted as Godfather of the Puerto Rican Day Parade in New York City and received the EL Award from El Diario Newspaper. Born in Spanish Harlem in 1936, Eddie began piano studies at an early age, as did his celebrated older brother, the late Salsa legend and pianist, Charlie Palmieri. He began his professional career as a pianist in the early '50s with Eddie Forrester's Orchestra. He then formed his own band, the legendary "La Perfecta" in 1961. La Perfecta demonstrated the early stages of Palmieri's unconventional means of orchestration. What resulted was a fusion that moved effortlessly from mood, groove, texture and excitement with its multi-dimensional guitar, funky piano riffs, notable brass and unforgettable rhythm section. There is a $45 cover.
