Una Noche Con Sabor Full Concert, The Palenke Arts Latin Jazz Combo featuring Christelle Durandy

Una Noche con Sabor was an unforgettable night of Afro-Caribbean music featuring our own Palenke Arts Latin Jazz Combo directed by Paul Contos and special guest , French-Caribbean chanteuse Christelle Durandy. The Palenke Arts Latin Jazz Combo, directed by Paul Contos has been in existence for almost 8 years. Their repertoire highlights the richness of the Latin Jazz traditions and features works by luminaries such as Chucho Valdes, Dizzy Gillespie, Chano Pozo and Poncho Sánchez. The Palenke Arts Latin Jazz Combo's director is legendary saxophonist and jazz educator Paul Contos, who is the current director of the SF Jazz Honor Ensemble, and worked previously for over thirty years as education director at the Monterey Jazz Festival. He has received a number of prestigious awards, such as Jazz Educator of the Year by Downbeat Magazine, and Champion of the Arts from the Arts Council of Monterey County, and toured throughout the world as saxophonist and flautist. Christelle Durandy fuses Afro-Caribbean, jazz and other polyrhythmic sounds in a provocative exploration of the African diaspora’s diffuse and powerful musical energy – a multicultural complexity Christelle herself embodies, having been raised in France by a mother from Reunion Island and a father from Guadeloupe. Christelle currently fronts her Afro-Caribbean ensemble Sanktet (a play on the French phrase “cinq têtes” or “five heads”) as well as the Grammy-winning Pacific Mambo Orchestra. She contributes her talents as writer, arranger and performer to the all-female World-Latin music collective Cocomama, based in New York. --- Palenke Arts is a multicultural arts organization whose mission is to educate, inspire and transform the community of Seaside through the arts. Our organization was founded in 2015 by a committed group of artists, educators and community members, led by Juan L. Sánchez. We recognized the urgent need for multicultural arts and music programs and events in the city of Seaside, especially for the youth, and envisioned the creation of a multicultural arts center.
