Riddim Section Presents Edmar Castaneda

Join us for an exciting Riddim Section concert, headlined by Edmar Castaneda! Riddim Section is a monthly concert series that explores the music of the African, Caribbean, and Latin American diasporas.

About the artist: Upon arriving in the United States in 1994, Colombian-born Edmar Castañeda has made a name for himself as the preeminent jazz harp virtuoso. Castañeda brings forth a brilliance that beautifully merges the jazz tradition with a diverse set of styles and genres while bringing unbridled attention to a somewhat unfamiliar instrument: the harp. Single-handedly, Castañeda has cemented the harp’s place in jazz with innovative technique and heartfelt creativity from a wealth of formidable collaborations with music titans such as Sting, Wynton Marsalis, Bela Fleck, John Scofield, Ricki Lee Jones, and many more.
