But for the first time\, that roof is the stunning Sound River Studios in LIC – perched right on the East River with soaring ceilings and breathtaking skyline views. \n  \nWhat you’ll taste\nMore than 50 restaurants\, beverage purveyors\, and dessert makers are expected to offer samples of their products. Plus\, clients of the Entrepreneur Space\, a food-and-business incubator that QEDC operates in Long Island City\, will provide their artisanal specialties. And to wash it all down\, brewers\, wine makers\, and mixologists will be on tap – as well as a host of non-alcoholic fruit juices and teas. \nRestaurant recruitment is underway\, but here are some entities that participated in last year’s Queens Taste and are certainly invited to return: Alewife; Arepa’s Café; Austin Ale House; Ben’s Deli; Il Nonno Ristorante; Jora; London Lennie’s; Moon Man; Neir’s Tavern; O Lavrador; Ottomanelli’s Burgers & Belgian Fries; Punjab Dhaba Catering & Sweets; QNSY Sparkling Cocktails; Queens Curry Kitchen; Rincon Salvadoreño; Saar Indian Cuisine; Schmidt’s Candy; The Wine Room of Forest Hills; Tipsy Scoop; and Toodles & French. \n  \nWhere you’ll be\nAfter more than two decades\, we’re excited to bring Queens Taste to the LIC waterfront for the first time ever. Located at 4-40 44th Drive next to Anabel Basin\, Sound River Studios is a wheelchair-accessible\, gallery-style venue with high ceilings\, white walls\, large windows\, and skylights. It has a capacity of 450 guests who can flow easily from the cavernous indoor space to a 1\,300-square-foot outdoor terrace. \n  \nWhat it’s all for\nFinally\, Queens Taste 2026 supports a good cause. Proceeds go to the Queens Economic Development Corporation’s ongoing efforts to attract\, create\, and maintain jobs in the borough. Early Bird tickets cost $125 each (two for $200)\, but as QEDC is a 501 (c) (3) nonprofit\, they’re partially tax-deductible as permitted by law.

SUMMARY:Albert Marquès – Flamenco Dance & Contemporary Jazz
DESCRIPTION:Albert Marquès – Piano & Flamenco Dance will perform with his duo\, delivering a dynamic jazz set that blends contemporary jazz and flamenco. \nTime: 7:00 pm to 8:00 pm (First Set) \n9:00 pm to 10:00 pm (Second Set) \nAdmission: $20 Cover charge \nFeaturing: \n\n\nAlbert Marquès – Piano \n\n\nKaren Lugo – Bailaora (Flamenco Dance) \n\n\nAbout Albert Marquès: \nAlbert Marquès is a pianist and composer from a working-class industrial town outside Barcelona\, where he worked in factories while attending school. Shaped early by political awareness and the local punk scene\, his musical development was also influenced by jazz pianists such as Chick Corea\, Brad Mehldau\, Michel Camilo\, and Herbie Hancock. Largely self-taught\, he later completed formal studies at the Conservatori Superior de Música del Liceu in Barcelona. \nFollowing his graduation\, Marquès undertook formative stays in the West Bank and Cuba\, experiences that deeply informed his artistic outlook. Back in Barcelona\, he became an active presence in the city’s jazz scene\, collaborating with leading musicians such as Marc Miralta and gaining recognition for a distinctive\, non-academic sound. \nHe later relocated to Paris\, where he immersed himself in the local jazz community\, performing with musicians including Rémi Vignolo and Pierre Perchaud\, and serving as pianist in drummer Leon Parker’s quartet. \nAt the age of 25\, Marquès moved to New York City to pursue jazz performance. There\, he became closely associated with his mentor Arturo O’Farrill\, who played a key role in his artistic development and professional trajectory. In New York\, Marquès established himself as a bandleader and collaborator\, working with artists such as Ari Hoenig and Spanish flamenco singer and saxophonist Antonio Lizana. \nBased in New York\, Marquès developed a personal musical language that brings together contemporary jazz and flamenco. He has released four albums as a bandleader and continues to perform internationally with a wide range of American and European musicians. \nIn addition to his performance career\, Marquès serves as Music Director at the Institute for Collaborative Education in New York\, a progressive public middle and high school in downtown Manhattan.
