JAZZ FOR YOUNG PEOPLE:
WHAT IS LATIN JAZZ?
HOSTED BY ARTURO O'FARRILL
MARCH 3RD AT 12PM AND 2PM
New York, NY (2/6/07) Jazz at Lincoln Center asks: what happens when you put a little Latin in your jazz? As Latin jazz pioneer Mario Bauza explained, "You walk with rhythm, you talk with rhythm, you eat your food with rhythm." Arturo O'Farrill and the Afro-Latin Jazz Orchestra show us how Dizzy, Machito, Bauza and others infected the lines of jazz with Latin grooves and started a rhythm epidemic in Jazz for Young People: What is Latin Jazz?
The performances, recommended for 6 year olds and up, will take place on March 3rd in Rose Theater at Frederick P. Rose Hall at 12pm and 2pm. Tickets are $12, $17, $32 and are available at Jazz at Lincoln Center's Frederick P. Rose Hall box office at Broadway at 60th Street (open Monday-Saturday 10:00am-6:00pm and Sunday 12:00pm-6
