Hot Weekend Under the Stars

Hello there!

We are SO LOOKING FORWARD to this weekend of Salsa and Jazz Under the Stars!

On Friday, we welcome Calle 66 back to the Albuquerque Museum Amphitheater @ 7pm.
Calle 66 reads like a varitable who's who of musicians on the New Mexico scene, and their salsa tunes are burn-your-mouth hot.

Get there at 6:30 and take a FREE SALSA LESSON with a professional instructor! There were 30 people on the dance floor for the lesson last week! It's a blast, not at all scary, and you'll learn a few new steps, so why not??

On Saturday, don't miss Transit Latin Jazz Ensemble! This concert is a reunion of sorts. Former NMJW director Ed Ulman, Amicar Guevara and Barret Martin are all flying in from far-flug locales to do this show, and we're glad for it!
If you didn't here a Maud talking up the band on KUNM the other day,Transit Latin Jazz Ensemble combines the rhythms of Afro-Cuban jazz, Brazilian fusion and Bossa Nova. It's going to be a great concert! Hey, we don't want to neglect our local heroes Rodolfo Gonzalez, Maud Beenhouwer also members of Transit, and Glenn Kostur and Cesar Bauvallet who are lending their artistry to the line-up. It's going to be a great evening under the stars!



And, don't forget about Sunday Jam Sessions at Seasons! This week it's the Rodolfo Gonzalez Quartet, Sunday, August 9th @ 7:30 pm! Get there early-- you know how that lovely, intimate patio can fill up in a heart beat!





Have a great weekend, whatever you're up to! We hope to see you at the Museum, Under the Stars!
