Rebeca Mauleón is the ninth recipient
of the SFJAZZ Beacon award, presented annually to celebrate the masterful
musicians and writers who have preserved the traditions and fostered
the growth of jazz in the Bay Area. A ferociously gifted pianist,
arranger, educator, producer and innovative bandleader, Mauleón
cut her teeth on the Mission District’s burgeoning 1970s Latin music
scene, performing and recording over the years with Tito Puente, "Cachao," Santana
and a host of others. Mauleón shares the spotlight with long-time
colleague and percussionist Karl Perazzo (of the Santana Band), who
has been a driving force in Bay Area Latin music. Rebeca and Karl
celebrate three decades in music with this high-spirited concert
featuring special guests Bobi Céspedes, Orestes Vilató and
Cuban vocal sensation Adonis Puentes, plus many surprise guests.
