4 PM Kevin Gallagher

5pm Bebo Valdés, a Cuban pianist, arranger and composer and a million-selling success story in his last two decades, passed away in Sweden this month at the age of 94. Mr. Valdés — 6 foot 4 (his nickname was El Caballón, or “The Big Horse”) and possessed of protean energy — was often the right man in the right place. His conservatory learning, his love of jazz and his curiosity about the extensions of African and European roots through Cuban music since the late 19th century put him in great demand. His son is the piano maestro Chucho Valdes who formed the legendary band Irakere. At 5pm Kevin talks w/ special guest multi-Grammy winner, Arturo O’Farrill to discuss the career and influence of Bebo Valdez on Latin music and Jazz.
