Estrella Acosta & Esquina 25 - Women In Cuban Music at Bates Recital Hall

About

Latin GRAMMY® 2023 nominee Estrella Acosta & her band Esquina 25, a group of international musicians who artfully combine Afro-Cuban music and Latin jazz with modern arrangements and improvisation, will play music from their nominated album 'Tierra'. Drawing inspiration from the rich musical heritage of her motherland, and especially the works of its female composers, Estrella creates a repertoire with songs rooted in the music of the Cuban countryside including her own compositions. Their music is described as “a happy transatlantic party that takes off and soars”
