Stanford Afro-Latin Jazz Ensemble Winter Concert

The acclaimed Stanford Afro-Latin Jazz Ensemble, directed by Murray Low, presents their Winter Concert. The group has an exciting program lined up, including a few firsts - modern jazz arrangements of centuries-old Sephardic music from Spain, new Afro-Brazilian grooves, and multi-cultural songs from today's artists! As usual, the band also presents the usual mix of songs spanning the entire Latin Jazz idiom-- starting with an eighty year old Danzon, through classic salsa and samba, and finally to modern instrumental Mambo Jazz. . Don't miss hearing and seeing the next generation of talented musicians in this genre. We'll get you moving in your seat, guaranteed!

The event takes place at Stanford's Dinkelspiel Auditorium on the Stanford campus on Saturday, March 8 at 7:30 PM. Advance tickets are available online for $27 general/$22 students and seniors.

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 given the opportunity to collaborate with several luminaries in the field of Afro-Latin music that 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.
