Bobby Sanabria Multiverse Big Band to release “Arsenio and Beyond” April 10th!

“The true Father of Mambo and Son Montuno, without Arsenio Rodriguez there is no salsa, Afro-Cuban jazz, and many would even argue, rock and funk. Although his music is timeless, I’ve always envisioned it being interpreted in a big band setting with modern, progressive jazz oriented arrangements. That vision has now finally become a reality in the recording you are holding in your hands. That it was done in front of a live audience with my incredible Multiverse Big Band in the mighty South Bronx where Arsenio once lived, in the new Bronx Music Hall where I am the co-Artistic Director with Elena Martinez right near where I grew up makes it even more special. ¡Qué viva Arsenio!” – Bobby Sanabria
