Latin Grammy Award winner David Sánchez is being hailed as the most profound young tenor saxophonist working today. World-renowned jazz critic Howard Reich saluted him, saying, “Technically, tonally and creatively, he seems to have it all. His sound is…plush, his pitch is unerring, his rapid-fire playing is ravishing in its combination of speed, accuracy and utter evenness of tone.” 

Born in Guaynabo, Puerto Rico, Sánchez has played with musicians such as Eddie Palmieri, Paquito D'Rivera, Dizzy Gillespie, Roy Haynes, Charlie Haden, and Miriam Makeba.

In his music, Sanchez expands the frontiers of mainstream jazz to incorporate a rich array of Afro-Latin influences. Says the Chicago Tribune, “[Sanchez’s] performance was as incendiary as it was intellectually provocative.”
