These rich traditions will be brought to life for you by the incomparable energy of The Gabriel Alegría Afro-Peruvian Sextet.
The band's signature blend of traditional Peruvian sounds and modern jazz influences is at the core of this experience.
This WILL be the greatest night of music in all of New York City... 😉

More About the Artists...
The Afro-Peruvian Sextet has produced eight CDS, one documentary film and one vinyl record to date. Their audiences come from all over the globe.
During your magical October evening with the band, you may even be invited to participate in Tour Perú - Behind the Scenes, an innovative concept by which fans of the band literally join the musicians on the road on tour in Peru!
With home bases in Lima and New York City, the band has been embraced by both cities. Hot House Magazine awarded the band New York City’s “Best Ensemble of the Year” award and the New York City Jazz Record “Best Latin Jazz Album.”
The band has successfully developed and consolidated a thriving “scene” around Afro-Peruvian jazz music. The Latin Jazz Network described the band in this way:
“Every once in a while there comes a musician who, when playing his or her chosen instrument, seems to carry within a vital life-force that is irrepressible.”
All we need now is YOU...
Can't wait to see you at The Cutting Room.
See you on Sunday October 4th!
