Jorge Betancourt (Beta)
Born in Camangüey, Cuba, the son of a famous symphonic orchestra conductor, Jorge Betancourt began his career with Charanga 86 before going on to work with Orquesta Trinima, Salsometro and the influential Valentine y los del Caribe. In Canada, he has earned a reputation for his animated stage presence and an inventive fusion of salsa, RnB, funk and timba with traditional son and guaracha forms.Beta will be joined by bassist Roberto Riveron to lead a night of improv jazz.
Dánae Olano
Children’s Corner, the debut full-length album by the Danae Olano Trio, features nine stellar Latin jazz tracks that represent the artist's first venture as a bandleader.From "This City," a track inspired by a stroll through busy downtown Toronto streets, to compositions such as “ Danzon Para la Abuela” and ”Step in” that accentuate the fusion of jazz with Olano’s Cuban heritage, Children’s Corner is rooted in the legacy of Cuba's esteemed piano masters such as Chucho Valdez, Ruben Gonzalez and Gonzalo Rubalcaba and enriched with Afro-Cuban rhythms and Olano’s unique approach.
