Established in 2008 by Grammy-nominated pianist Murray Low, the ensemble has emerged as one of the premier academic performing groups of its kind. As prior recipients of a prestigious SiCA (Stanford Institute for Creativity and the Arts) grant, SALJE has been affored the opportunity to collaborate with several luminaries in the field of Afro-Latin music, including Karl Perazzo, John Santos, Ray Vega, John Calloway, Jesus Diaz, Wayne Wallace and flautist Andrea Brachfeld. These master musicians and educators have helped to elevate the ensemble's performance acumen, as well as aid in establishing Stanford as a vital West Coast center for Afro-Latin Jazz.
