Two Latin Jazz pioneers - percussionist Annette Aguilar and pianist / composer Michele Rosewoman -- are featured with their ensembles in a double-bill celebrating Women's History Month on Saturday, March 28, 7:30 PM at the Hostos Center for the Arts & the Culture, 450 Grand Concourse in the Bronx.
Utilizing a unique combination of strings, winds and percussion, Aguilar leads her ten-piece ensemble StringBeans in a wide range of Latin styles, including music from Brazil. Rosewoman, with her 11-piece New Yor-Uba, creates a distinct musical experience by digging into her vast reservoir of acoustic modern jazz, sophisticated funk, electric fusion and elements of Cuban folkloric music.
