Harpist, Band leader and composer Edmar Castaneda was born in Bogotá, Colombia where he started playing the Colombian harp at the early age of thirteen.
He has a unique style of playing harp, combining Latin Jazz with traditional Colombian music. Edmar has carved a firm place in the international jazz scene. A jazz harpist of imposing talent, he trans- forms the harp into a lead instrument to phenomenal effect. Producing cross-rhythms like a drummer, smashing chordal flour- ishes like a flamenco guitarist and collating bebop and Colombian music.“he is practically a world unto himself”.
Everything about his new album "Entre Cuerdas" feat. John Scofield and Joe Locke can be found on artistshare.
