Jazz at the Oxford | 15th Season
Experience Arturo Sandoval live at Jazz at the Oxford, an intimate concert experience in the Minnesota Ballroom at The Oxford Hotel Bend. With limited seating and the artist just steps from the audience, each performance offers 90 minutes of live music in one of downtown Bend’s most distinctive settings.
ABOUT THE ARTIST
Arturo Sandoval is a living legend of the trumpet. A ten-time Grammy Award winner, Emmy winner, 2024 Kennedy Center Honoree, and recipient of the Presidential Medal of Freedom. Born in Artemisa, Cuba, and mentored by the immortal Dizzy Gillespie, Sandoval has become one of the most dazzling virtuosos ever to lift a horn, equally commanding in blistering bebop, Afro-Cuban fire, and tender balladry. From the world's great symphony halls to its most storied jazz rooms, every Sandoval performance is an electrifying celebration of freedom, artistry, and joy.
