The Manhattan School of Music has long been a fixture of the New York music scene and prides itself as one of the first conservatories in the United States to acknowledge the prime importance of jazz as an art form.

The Afro-Cuban Jazz Orchestra, led by multi-GRAMMY Award nominee Bobby Sanabria, boasts two separate Latin GRAMMY Award nominations, an exceptional accomplishment for a student ensemble who will present a new Latin jazz treatment of music from Leonard Bernstein's timeless Broadway masterpiece, West Side Story.

This unique tribute, titled "West Side Story Revisited: A 60th Anniversary Tribute" coincides with the 60th anniversary of Bernstein's classic musical.

The concert will take place on April 10, 7:30pm & 9:30p.m. at Dizzy's Club Coca-Cola, Jazz at Lincoln Center, located on the 5th floor of the Time Warner Building on 60th street and Broadway. Reservations can be made at www.jazz.org/dizzys. Prices: Cover: $35; Student: $20.
