Tiny Desk Concerts
Hear and watch intimate video performances, recorded live at the desk of All Songs Considered host Bob Boilen in the NPR Music office.
Castaneda is the sort of musician who isn't afraid to challenge the established order. He's carving out a place for himself in Latin jazz on an instrument you don't often hear in his style of music: the Colombian harp. Castaneda recently parked himself behind Bob Boilen's desk and crafted a transporting mix of tradition and improvisation.
