Happy birthday Dizzy Gillespie 🥳 In 1947, Dizzy Gillespie and Cuban percussionist Chano Pozo changed jazz forever with “Manteca.” Co-written with arranger Gil Fuller, the piece fused Gillespie’s modern bebop harmonies with Pozo’s deep Afro-Cuban rhythmic tradition — one of the first and most influential Latin jazz compositions ever recorded. Built around a hypnotic three-note bass riff and driven by conga and cowbell, “Manteca” was unlike anything the jazz world had heard. Pozo brought the groo

As we remember Chano Pozo on his birthday, we are reminded of Dizzy's story of how he and Chano created "Manteca." Chano was the first Latin percussionist in Gillespie's band. Born in former slave quarters in Havana, Pozo ascended as one of Cuba’s most influential percussionists of the early 20th century, transcending race and socioeconomic status while playing key roles in a wide range of folkloric and popular genres, both in his native Cuba and, upon emigrating in 1946, in the United States.

As we celebrate the birth of Cuban-born Chano Pozo (Jan 7, 1915 - Dec 3, 1948) , we think of the jazz standard “Manteca” which was the product of a collaboration between Dizzy Gillespie, Chano Pozo and arranger Gil Fuller. “Manteca” signified one of the beginning steps on the road from Afro-Cuban rhythms to Latin jazz. In the years leading up to 1940, Cuban rhythms and melodies migrated to the United States, while, simultaneously, the sounds of American #jazz traveled across the Caribbean. Music
