Descripción del evento

Grammy-nominated Tiempo Libre is one of the hottest young Latin bands today. Havana schooled and Miami-based, this group is known for their incendiary, joyful performances of timba—an irresistible mix of high-voltage Latin jazz and the seductive rhythms of traditional Cuban son.

During the evening, the Cuban music ensemble joins forces with the UNF music ensembles in a special performance of Rumba Sinfonica (Symphonic Party), a “21st century Afro-Cuban response to Ravel’s Bolero,” as the composer Ricardo Lorenz describes the work commissioned for Tiempo Libre. An exciting and spirited piece, it fuses the urban rhythms of Cuban music with orchestral instrumentation to depict danzon, cha-cha-cha, afro, son montuno and timba. Tiempo Libre tops off your evening with an explosive mix of irresistible, dance-inducing tunes.

Tickets start at $24. Call 620-2878 for more information or to purchase tickets.
