Han Bennink

Drummer and multi-instrumentalist Han Bennink was born in Zaandam near Amsterdam in 1942. His first percussion instrument was a kitchen chair.

HORACIO 'EL NEGRO' HERNANDEZ & ITALUBA

Horacio “El Negro” Hernandez has been the power behind the most popular and influential Latin music of the past decade. Since leaving Cuba and arriving in New York in 1993, he’s driven the efforts of Grammy Awards-winners Michel Camilo, Roy Hargrove and Chucho Valdes, as well as Paquito D’Rivera, Gonzalo Rubalcaba and Carlos Santana, with a unique “Latin fusion” style that melds the steady press of the folkloric clave with the fierce punch, crisp snap and deep grooves of today’s jazz, pop and rock.
