cristobal castillo lackington

Cristóbal Castillo Lackington is a Chilean saxophonist by training, double bassist, and composer based in New York City. As a South American artist, his musical identity has been shaped by a diverse cultural background, combining his connection to the jazz tradition with influences from Latin American popular music, folk traditions, and the singer-songwriter tradition.
His musical journey began with formal training as a classical saxophonist, developing a strong foundation in sound, interpretation, and musical discipline. His artistic path later expanded toward jazz double bass and composition, which he developed through independent study, listening, performance, and collaboration.
As a composer and performer, Castillo Lackington brings together different musical perspectives: the discipline of classical training, the expressive freedom of jazz, and the cultural sensitivity shaped by his South American roots.
