Join us as MacArthur and Guggenheim fellow Miguel Zenón partners with Spektral Quartet for the release of their new album on Miel Music, “Yo Soy la Tradición," an immersive, concert-length work inspired by the culture of Zenón’s native Puerto Rico. First premiered in September 2016 at the Hyde Park Jazz Festival, the work is an eight-movement suite that pairs lush, melodic string writing with complex rhythmic interactions, blurring the lines between jazz, classical, and folk music. Though it outlines four of Puerto Rico’s musical traditions, “Yo Soy la Tradición” is much more than a collection of dances designed to get you moving: it is a heartfelt, insider-tour of a rich cultural landscape.
General Admission: $35
