A thrilling night with one of Cuba’s hottest exports— singer and percussion phenomenon Pedrito Martinez! The evening begins with Pedrito playing the orisha rhythms of santería on bata drums, with special guests Román Díaz and Mauricio Herrera, and ends on the dance floor, with Pedrito and his band feverishly delivering their distinct, funky brand of salsa. With his piercing voice, virile dance moves, and unparalleled drumming skills, this Theolonius Monk Competition-winner has been hailed as “an incomparable performer” by the New York Times.
