Celebrate the music of Latin America with this program led by Maestro Guillermo Figueroa, presenting the talents of your Santa Fe Symphony Orchestra and guest soloists JP Jofre and Miguel del Águila. JP Jofre, one of the world’s leading performers of the bandoneón—the Latin American version of the accordion—joins us for Astor Piazzolla’s Concerto for Bandoneón, “Aconcagua.” We are also honored to have a special appearance by Latin GRAMMY-nominated composer and musician Miguel del Águila playing the piano on his popular Conga, a not-to-be-missed performance! This exciting afternoon of great music also presents Roberto Sierra’s Symphony No. 3, “La Salsa” and Ariel Ramírez’ Misa Criolla, plus appearances by local guitarists and percussionists.

Join us for a FREE preview talk at 3:00 PM.
