Grammy and Latin Grammy award-winning pianist and composer Michel Camilo brings his sextet to the Blue Note Jazz Festival in New York. The band name “Three + Three” comes from the combination of the core Trio unit with a three-member horn section. The music expands from the Latin and Afro-Caribbean rhythms to the harmonies of the jazz tradition and funk elements, blending personal acoustic voices with fiercely contemporary energy. A well-rounded, effortlessly grooving repertoire which excites both body and mind. “Three + Three” features a myriad of styles, textures and rich harmonies together with an inspired exuberant positivism that cuts a signature sound through the soul of Michel Camilo’s music.
