The series continues with SML’s Columbus debut, blending electronics, groove, and improvisation, followed by Alfredo Rodríguez and Pedrito Martínez in a vibrant fusion of Havana roots and Afro-Cuban jazz. The season closes with the return of Cécile McLorin Salvant and her quartet, performing her captivating new project, Oh Snap. One season, four unforgettable performances.
