Edmar Castaneda Family
“…an enormous talent... Edmar has the versatility and the enchanting charisma of a musician who has taken his harp out of the shadow to become one of the most original musicians from the Big Apple.” (Paquito D’Rivera)

Upon arriving in the United States in 1994, Colombian-born Edmar Castañeda has made a name for himself as the preeminent jazz harp virtuoso. Castañeda brings forth a brilliance that beautifully merges the jazz tradition with a diverse set of styles and genres while bringing unbridled attention to a somewhat unfamiliar instrument: the harp. Singlehandedly, Castañeda has cemented the harp’s place in jazz with innovative technique and heartfelt creativity from a wealth of formidable collaborations with music titans such as Wynton Marsalis, Bela Fleck, John Scofield, Hiromi, Pedrito Martinez, Marcus Miller, Gonzalo Rubalcaba, and Paquito D’Rivera. Castañeda was nominated for a Latin Grammy in the category Best Latin Jazz Album with his album Family.
