SUMMARY:AFROINDI | Poetic & Musical Performance | Afro-Peruvian & Indigenous Soundscapes
DESCRIPTION:A powerful poetic and musical encounter where Afro-Peruvian voices meet Indigenous traditions from across Latin America\, weaving rhythm\, memory\, and ancestral sound into a layered\, transnational experience that bridges diaspora\, identity\, and living cultural expression. \nAdmission: $20 Cover charge Mezzanine \nFeaturing: \n\n\nMónica Carrillo Zegarra / Vocals \n\n\nJuan Carlos Marín / Jarana \n\n\nEric Kurimski / Guitar \n\n\nGeorgina Saldaña / Vocals \n\n\nAbout AFROINDI: \nAFROINDI is a multidisciplinary performance project situated at the intersection of Afro-Peruvian poetics and Indigenous sonic traditions from the Andes and Mesoamerica. Conceived as a space of encounter\, the work activates ancestral memory through the convergence of voice\, rhythm\, and embodied sound. Afro-Peruvian spoken word enters into dialogue with Afro-Mexican and Indigenous musical forms\, generating a layered\, transnational soundscape where diasporic identities are negotiated and reimagined in real time. \nAbout Mónica Carrillo Zegarra: \nMónica Carrillo Zegarra is an Afro-Peruvian poet\, composer\, and cultural practitioner whose work engages the politics of memory\, race\, and representation. Author of Unicroma\, her practice operates across literary\, musical\, and performative registers\, situating Afro-descendant narratives within both academic and community-based contexts. Her collaborations with internationally recognized artists expand her work into global circuits\, while maintaining a critical focus on Afro-Latin American epistemologies. \nAbout Juan Carlos Marín: \nJuan Carlos Marín is a musician and cultural organizer whose work centers on the transmission and reinterpretation of Son Jarocho as a diasporic practice. As leader of Los Guachinangos\, he facilitates transnational collaborations that foreground collective music-making as a site of cultural continuity and exchange. His practice situates traditional forms within contemporary migratory contexts\, emphasizing the role of music as a living archive. \nAbout Eric Kurimski: \nEric Kurimski is a leading voice in contemporary Afro-Peruvian guitar\, known for his distinctive fusion of jazz and Afro-Peruvian traditions. A seasoned performer on major stages including Carnegie Hall and Lincoln Center\, he has collaborated with iconic artists such as Eva Ayllón and developed a sound that bridges cultures with virtuosity and depth. \nAbout Georgina Saldaña: \nGeorgina Saldaña is a vocalist\, composer\, and cultural producer whose work navigates the intersections of popular and traditional music from Oaxaca and the broader Latin American context. As co-founder of La China Sonidera\, she contributes to the evolution of cumbia as a translocal genre\, while her training in classical voice informs a versatile and interdisciplinary practice. Her work foregrounds voice as a site of cultural memory and transformation.

SUMMARY:Eric Stern’s Cuban Jazz Project
DESCRIPTION:A vibrant fusion of Cuban timba and American jazz\, this trio blends infectious dance rhythms with bold improvisation and harmonic depth\, creating a fresh sound that honors both traditions while pushing them forward. \n7:30 pm to 8:30(First Set) \n9:30 PM (Jam Session) \nAdmission: $20 cover charge for mezzanine seating · $10 for jammers \nFeaturing: \n\n\nEric Stern – Piano \n\n\nGeorge Greenhill  – Drums \n\n\nJohn Benitez – Bass \n\n\nAbout: Eric Stern’s Cuban Jazz Project: \nIt is a new trio. The project aims to seamlessly blend two genres of music – Cuban timba\, the cuban dance music of Elito Reve\, Alex Abreu\, Los Van Van\, and others\, and American jazz\, which Eric grew up with in Brooklyn – the music of Thelonious Monk\, Charlie Parker\, Bud Powell\, and the great American Songbook. By incorporating jazz improvisation and harmonic innovation into the format of a standard cuban timba band\, never losing danceability or rhythmic sensibility\, the project blends both timba and jazz into one music\, honoring both traditions while moving the music forward\, together. \nAbout Eric Stern: \nEric Stern is a pianist and composer based in New York City. Eric plays a variety of genres of music\, including latin jazz with John Benitez\, salsa with Carabali\, modern jazz with Noah Myers’ Sonder\, hip-hop with Good Lives Crew\, and straight-ahead jazz with a myriad of young artists. Eric’s ability to blend these influences seamlessly into any performance\, while staying authentic to each genre\, has allowed Eric to quickly establish himself as a rising star in the NYC music scene.
