Arturo Sandoval began learning how to play the trumpet at age 12, in a small town in the outskirts of Havana, Cuba. Since then, Sandoval has become a living legend of jazz worldwide. He was recently awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the highest civilian honor in the United States. Days later, Sandoval learned that he also won a 10th Grammy for his latest album Un Siglo de Pasión. This program repeat features a conversation with the trumpeter, pianist and composer about his remarkable journey and music.
