About

Arturo O'Farrill and the Afro Latin Jazz Orchestra (ALJO) are thrilled to return to the Symphony Space stage for "An Evening with Lionel Loueke" on January 30 & 31, 2015. Presenting the show is O'Farrill's nonprofit, The Afro Latin Jazz Alliance, a proud visiting presenter at Symphony Space.

One of the New Year's most-anticipated music collaborations, O'Farrill teams up with Benin-born artist Lionel Loueke to present big band arrangements of select works from the celebrated guitarist's catalogue. Loueke has been widely praised for his fusion of traditional West African music with modern jazz harmonies, unique vocal inflections, and complex time signatures.
