David Sanchez Recorded at the London Jazz Festival

Jez Nelson presents a concert given by Puerto Rican saxophonist David Sanchez at the Pizza Express jazz club as part of the 2008 London Jazz Festival.

Jez Nelson presents a concert given by Puerto Rican saxophonist David Sanchez at the Pizza Express jazz club as part of the 2008 London Jazz Festival, featuring material from his album Cultural Survival. By incorporating the approach of heavy-toned saxophonists like John Coltrane and Sonny Rollins, and the Latin and Afro-Caribbean influences of his homeland, Sanchez has developed a fierce but lyrical style that has gained admiration worldwide.

Since his time as a teenager in Dizzy Gillespie's world-jazz orchestra, Sanchez has released a string of successful albums as a bandleader. In 2005, he received critical recognition by winning a Latin Grammy Award for his album Coral.
