The performance draws from his years of travel\, study\, and collaboration in Colombia — including time with the late maestro Diego Obregón — and his continued work as a composer in New York City. \nOver the past four years\, Dan’s voice has evolved through a blend of jazz harmony\, Afro-Colombian rhythm\, and the spirit of the American Songbook\, filtered through his California roots. The result is a bold set of original compositions and rich arrangements shaped by lived experience across cultures. \nA key part of this journey is Dan’s collaboration with Colombian vocalist Xiomara Torres\, whose voice and deep ties to Pacific Coast tradition bring this music to life with authenticity and soul. \nYou will hear airs like currulao\, aguabajo\, juga\, and abozao\, paired with intricate horn arrangements and interpreted by some of New York’s finest jazz musicians. \nThis project reflects the multicultural energy of New York—where folklore\, improvisation\, and innovation coexist—and presents Afro-Colombian music in a new\, elevated form shaped by Dan’s singular vision. \nAbout Dan Neville:  \nDan Neville is an award-winning vibraphonist\, composer\, and arranger based in NYC and a 2025 recipient of the New Jersey State Council on the Arts Fellowship for Music Composition. \nWinner of the 2025 Springfest Vibraphone Competition\, Dan has performed in Europe\, South America\, and across the U.S.\, including the SFJAZZ Center and NBC’s Today Show. \nOriginally from Sonoma\, California\, he began on guitar\, later embracing the vibraphone. In San Francisco\, he collaborated with figures like John Santos and Anthony Blea\, while studying Afro-Cuban music and composition. \nHe earned his B.A. in Jazz Studies at California Jazz Conservatory\, touring Europe with the school’s top ensemble. His debut album Tenerife (2017) featured top Bay Area musicians and was celebrated for its refined Afro-Latin jazz. \nIn 2020\, Dan spent a year in Cali\, Colombia\, studying with Diego Obregón and recording with musicians from the Pacific Coast. His time there led to performances at Utopía and Tamborimba festivals\, and his feature in the documentary Viaje de La Marimba. \nSince relocating to NYC in 2021\, Dan has studied at William Paterson University\, collaborated with artists like Randy Brecker\, and performed regularly at Terraza 7. \nHe produced and arranged La Voz del Mar (2022) by Xiomara Torres\, which reached #1 on RMR’s Latin Jazz chart and was praised by DownBeat.
