Leo Tizol Presents :
The goal of our organization is to contribute
to the expansion of Jazz and Latin music, which for decades has united
generations of musicians and artists that have combined their
talents in explosive presentations of modern rhythms and
spontaneous melodies, in which folkloric rituals transform
themselves into a fascinating conversation of exuberance, lead
by pioneers who keep the flame going from generation to
generation.
The Latin rhythms are the most important foundation for popular
music, past and present. There is no musical movement or genre
that hasn't been impacted by Latin Music or musicians that
haven't been influenced or attracted to Latin Music.
Our long term project is to spread the value of the cultural
influences that for years generated the musical traditions that
fuel the various musical genres including Jazz, latin jazz, Pop,
Rock, Reggae, bachata, to the socio-cultural phenomenon known as
'Salsa'.
Leo Tizol Presents and Mundo Libre Music wants to reflect the
musical diversity and cultural qualities of our musical
traditions to the rest of the world.
