The three-time Grammy®-nominated Cuban music group Tiempo Libre is one the hottest young Latin bands today, celebrated for its incendiary, joyful performances of timba, an irresistible mix of high-voltage Latin jazz, and the seductive rhythms of “son”. Don’t miss this one-night-only performance, featuring traditional cha-cha-chás, traditional sones including “El Manicero,” “Son de la Loma,” and “Guantanamera” arranged by Tiempo Libre’s Jorge Gómez in collaboration with Raul Murciano, as well as selections from Tiempo Libre’s Grammy®-nominated Bach in Havana, which uniquely fuses Cuban music and Bach.
Following the performance, Tiempo Libre will treat fans to a 25 minute timba concert on stage, featuring songs from the recently released My Secret Radio.
