Quinteto Latino: Classical Music of Latin America for Woodwinds

Since 2004, Quinteto Latino has performed music of Latino and Latin-American composers and used the performances to educate audiences around racial equity and cultural issues in the classical music field. Sharing the wonderful music of Latino composers and supporting them in their creation of new works and wider recognition are Quinteto Latino's goals for every performance. Their program includes a piece recently commissioned by them: Mitos by Gabriela Lena Frank, as well as a tribute to the late Paul Desenne: El Recreo, La Cumbia, Los Vikingos, y Otras Miniaturas. They are excited to perform these new pieces alongside a folk song and a well-known tango... old and new Latin American music!

With Armando Castellano, French horn; Leslie Tagorda, clarinet; Diane Grubbe, flute; Kyle Bruckmann, oboe and Jamael Smith, bassoon.

$15-$30.
