Dizzy Gillespie was the first American to fully fathom the rhythms of Cuba. Tito Puente was the first Latin bandleader to make the mambo and other popular Afro-Cuban rhythms and dances accessible to American audiences. Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra bassist Carlos Henriquez kicks off the Latin in Manhattan series by leading the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra, the greatest living conguero Giovanni Hidalgo and the hottest Latin drummer Ignacio Berroa in a program dedicated to two luminaries who fundamentally changed the way Americans listened to jazz.
