Pianist and composer Omar Sosa, a leading ambassador of the new Cuban sound, is known for his intoxicating, impressionistic approach to Latin jazz, one that fuses a wide range of musical traditions, encompassing everything from cha-cha grooves and yoruba chants to hip hop beats and rhapsodic melodies. This exclusive Alternate Routes double-bill also welcomes Jerry Gonzalez and the Fort Apache Band, an ensemble dedicated to playing uncompromised Afro-Caribbean jazz, lending the flexibility of jazz to a hot Latin Rhythm section.
All Seats $39
