Without a doubt, Paquito is the # 1 saxophonist and clarinetist on the current world scene of Latin Jazz.

And Cargo Music from CLAZZ, is proud and honored not only that Paquito is the official godfather of our festival since the first edition in Madrid and Barcelona in 2011, but also of representing and presenting it in Spain and Europe since 2018.

Today, the Maestro is preparing a new repertoire for the new 2019 tour, CARIBERIAN TOUR by CLAZZ. The universal Cuban music fan will not only enjoy but will be surprised when he hears pieces from the classic Spanish repertoire of Falla, Albéniz, Rodrigo and Tárrega, in the key of Latin jazz …
