Danzon is a relatively new venture born from the  frequent requests for Latin, Salsa and Ceroc music,  This is currently Tony Sheppard and Diane Atkinson, playing pieces such as Mambo Inn, Fungi Mamma, Sway and many more.  Tony’s Triangle is not to be missed and my Conga playing is a sight for sore eyes!  Keep checking back for more information or visit www.danzon.co.uk

Add to all this the Tenor Sax, Baritone Sax ,Flute, Trombone, Keyboards extra percussion and Vocals and the two musicians sound like an 8  piece band !
Tony and Diane set up Danzón  after finding that the Latin American numbers they included in their programme with the Ain’t Misbehavin’ Jazz band were proving really popular,
