Come join us for a special live music event as TEATRO Si presents an evening with the New Bojaira Flamenco - Jazz Band on Friday, May 3, 2024 at 7:30pm as part of a U.S. tour by this talented group from Spain. This Latin Jazz @ Galeria music series concert experience will bring to you an exciting fusion of true American jazz and deeply rooted flamenco.
New Bojaira (Bō-hī-ra) plays an original and engaging fusion, blending jazz improvisation with the excitement of flamenco rhythms, dance and singing to create a powerful combination of energy and subtlety on stage, taking audiences on a fascinating multi-cultural excursion.
This creative group bridges the musical traditions from both sides of the Atlantic delivering a sound that speaks to both Jazz and Flamenco fans. Pianist Jesús Hernández, singer/flautist Alfonso Cid, saxophonist & flautist Peter Branin, double bassist Tim Ferguson, drummer Mark Holen and flamenco dancer Elisabet Torras generate the band’s uncommon energy with flamenco rhythms and the harmonic depth of jazz. New Bojaira's music transcends both styles creating a new and wonderful synthesis.
With many well received concert performances in the United States, Spain, France, Italy and Portugal this special ensemble of music artists takes the stage at the cozy GALERIA The Art Venue, located at 111 Quimby Street in downtown Westfield, NJ.
Refreshments will be available for your enjoyment. Also enjoy the current exhibitions at GALERIA of works by internationally acclaimed French fine artist Daniel Couthures, the bucolic themed paintings by NJ artist Catherine Whitehead, art creations by acknowledged Mexican fine artist Margarita Somnolet, the in-demand art works by South American painter Carlos Ivan Cruz, the “Breathing Art” series by Swiss digital artist Stan Adard, plus various other local and international artists.
