Este es el calendario actualizado del mes de Abril: Rodrigo y Gabriela se presenta en
el Radio City, el Ballet Hispano se
presenta en el Teatro Joyce de Chelsea, Charly García en el BestBuy Theater y Los Gipsy Kings en el Beacon... y más!.
* RODRIGO Y GABRIELA and C.U.B.A > Abril 20 > Radio City Music Hall > R&G.
This show is in support of the band’s soon to be released album Area 52 (release date: January 24th). Area
52 contains nine of Rod and Gab's favorite songs from their own
catalogue re-arranged and recorded in Havana with legendary producer
Peter Asher and a 13-piece Cuban orchestra comprised of some of the
country's finest young players.
During the
tour and at Radio City Music Hall, Rodrigo y Gabriela will be performing
with the band C.U.B.A. in order to showcase the thrilling and dynamic
hybrid of metal, latin and jazz featured on the album in a live setting.
It will mark the first time in their careers that Rodrigo y Gabriela
have toured and performed with a backing band.
* Ballet Hispánico > Abril 17 al 29 > Joyce Theater > Ballet.
Ballet Hispánico pays tribute to the richness of its Latino roots—and the diverse talents of the company's dancers—with a Joyce season that features African and Caribbean influences. Highlights include the world premiere of Espiritu Vivo, created especially for Ballet Hispanico by Ronald K. Brown and set to live music by Afro-Peruvian Latin Grammy winner Susana Baca; and the Joyce premiere of Asuka, Artistic Director Eduardo Vilaro's first work for the company, an exuberant homage to salsa legend Celia Cruz. A trio of alternately edgy and theatrical works from Annabelle Lopez Ochoa—including the New York premiere of Nube Blanco—captures the emotional range of the company, while the program sees a revival of Pedro Ruiz's Guajira and the return of repertory gem Tito on Timbales by William Whitener.
* Angel Corella's Barcelona Ballet> Del 17 al 20 de Abril> NY City Center > Corella.
Spain’s Barcelona Ballet (formerly Corella Ballet) returns to New York City Center for a second engagement following several successful U.S. tours. Artistic Director Ángel Corella will dance with his company in a program featuring Clark Tippet’s Bruch Violin Concerto, Christopher Wheeldon’s For 4, and the world premiere of Pálpito, by Ángel Rojas and Carlos Rodríguez.
* Lucia Pulido: Journeying - Por esos caminos CD Release > April 19 > Joe's Pub > PULIDO.
With one of the richest voices on the international Latin musical scene today, Lucia Pulido has mined the musical traditions of her native Colombia and ther Latin American countries in an ongoing search for a distinct, experimental style. The New York Times says that, "Ms. Pulido holds on to the rawness of the original melodies while giving them a sophisticated new context." Her ensemble pays homage to the "chirimía", one of the many types of Colombian street bands, using traditional genres such as cumbia and bullerengue from the Atlantic Coast, currulaos from the Pacific Coast as well as joropos of the Colombian Eastern Plains as the point of departure for creative musical excursions. Pulido's vocal sophistication is enhanced in genres such as herding songs (cantos de vaquería), funeral laments (alabaos) and harvest chants (cantos de zafra) which give the singer the liberty to explore her voice fully.
* Gipsy Kings > Abril 23 > Beacon Theater > KINGS
The best-selling French band in history, the Gipsy Kings are among the best-known non-English speaking groups in the U.S. (the band’s language is the Gypsy dialect of gitane). Since the 1987 release of the international hit single “Bamboleo,” the Gipsy Kings have sold more than 20 million albums worldwide—more than four million in the United States alone. The band’s vigorous guitar work and passionate vocals are the trademarks of an indigenous musical tradition known as “rumba flamenca.”
Albums such as the gold-certified Mosaique, Allegria, Este Mundo, Gipsy Kings Live, Love & Liberté, Tierra Gitana, Cantos de Amor, and Volare! The Very Best of the Gipsy Kings have provided a steady stream of hits to Billboard’s world music, Latin, and pop charts. The ensemble’s music has been used in numerous motion pictures, including Peter Weir’s “Fearless” and Joel and Ethan Coen’s “The Big Lebowski.”
* Charly Garcia > 60 x 60 > Abril 25 > Best Buy Theater > CHARLY.
En el marco de una gira que lleva el nombre de 60 x 60 y que tiene el propósito de celebrar sus 60 años de vida repasando sus 60 mejores canciones.
* RODRIGUEZ > Light In The Attic > April 25 > Joe's Pub >>
LIGHT.
It's one of the lost classics of the '60s, a psychedelic masterpiece drenched in colour and inspired by life, love, poverty, rebellion. The album is Cold Fact, and what's more intriguing is that its maker - a shadowy figure known as Rodriguez - was, for many years, lost too. A decade ago, he was rediscovered working as a menial day laborer in Detroit, Michigan. He was unaware that his defining album had become not only a cult classic, but for the people of South Africa, a beacon of revolution.
Now, Light In The Attic is set to commit Cold Fact and Coming From Reality to CD for an entire new audience, who can finally find out why - halfway across the world - Rodriguez is spoken of in the same reverent tones as The Doors, Love and Jimi Hendrix.

Artist of the Year, a member of the DownBeat Hall of Fame, a 16-time
Grammy winner, and an undisputed keyboard virtuoso, Chick Corea has
attained living legend status after four decades of unparalleled
creativity and an artistic output that is simply staggering. From
straight ahead to avant-garde, bebop to fusion, and children's songs to
chamber music, along with some far-reaching forays into symphonic works,
Corea has touched an astonishing number of musical bases in his
illustrious career, all while maintaining a standard of excellence that
is awe inspiring. A tirelessly creative spirit, Corea continues to forge
ahead, continually reinventing himself in the process.

is a Buenos Aires singer who calls on the sounds of Jamaican dub and
reggae, American ambient and hip-hop, Mexican bolero, and Argentine
tango. Last but not least, Brooklyn native Ursula 1000 uses heavy sampling to make fun, danceable lounge, breakbeat, glam and cha cha beats.

impressive sonero with his unique style of "soneo" (improvisation) in

* Flamenco Festival New York 2012 series of

* The Armory Party 2012 > Con Neon Indian > March 7 > MOMA.
* Federico Aubele > Marzo 8 > Joe's Pub.
Federico Aubele returns to a smoky realm of acoustic guitar licks, heavy rhythms and sinister dub atmospherics for his fourth studio album, Berlin 13. The record pulls from the personal transformation Aubele experienced in his time living in Berlin and the vibe of a city strongly associated with electronic music.
* LOS AMIGOS INVISIBLES
> The Black Cat Washington, DC > Marzo 8 > AMIGOS.
> Music Hall of Williamsburg > Brooklyn, NY > Marzo 9 > AMIGOS.
Ya son 1 Latin Grammy + 2 nominaciones al Latin Grammy, 2 nominaciones a los Grammys Americanos, más de 60 paises visitados, 6 discos de estudio, 1 DVD+CD en vivo, 1 álbum de

Muchachito plays guitar, drums and bass box while sings their self-published three albums and some older covers of their favorit.
* VESTUSTA MORLA > Marzo 13 > Highline Ballroom.
VESTUSTA MORLA es un sexteto de
rock originado a finales de los 90 que trata de ir más allá de los estereotipos
del género. Primeramente en un sentido estético, añadiendo timbres y patrones rítmicos
ajenos a la tradición del rock, integrándose en él sin pretender la fusión ni
el mestizaje. Su intenso directo y unas letras que prefieren la sugerencia de
imágenes al mensaje unívoco e invitan a la participación activa del oyente, son
los otros dos anclajes artísticos de su música. Ambas características contribuyen
a una sensación de pertenencia (totalmente real, por otro lado) que nace en
quien les escucha > VETUSTA.
* Quique González > Marzo 13 > Joe's Pub.
Quique González premiers this new project with all the songs that could not have their own space at the ‘Daiquiri Blues’ tour.This show will be presented in a minimalist format for reduced venues and based on a repertoire of b sides, versions, rarities, his last album songs and mostly non edited songs. It is a good opportunity to enjoy songs scarcely performed in the artist’s last tours > Quique.
* Cristina Morrison, I Love > Marzo 13 > Metropolitan Room.
The debut solo jazz effort from singer/songwriter Cristina Morrison, I Love, introduces one of the most distinctively original vocal artists on the scene today. An accomplished actress, a graduate of the prestigious American Academy of Dramatic Arts, Ms. Morison’s talent has been hailed as “chameleonic and versatile ” and she brings these same qualities to her music on an album that melds jazz, blues, folk and pop sensibilities of the U.S. with samba, bossa nova and other South American influences, in a unique mélange that is all her own. Born of mixed American and Ecuadorian parentage in Miami, Morrison has resided in Rome, Quito, the Galapagos Islands, Los Angeles and now New York City, resulting in a multicultural world view that is reflected in her music, which is informed by her myriad life experiences and keen observations into the nature of the human character.

* REVOLUTIONARY SNAKE ENSEMBLE / GATO LOCO > Mar 17 > 92Y Tribeca.
The Revolutionary Snake Ensemble is a costumed funk/street beat improvisational brass band performing a unique blend of original and traditional music.
Gato Loco’s live shows deliver an instant party, filled with celebration and joy; like a decadent Latin mambo ballroom, thrown in the midst of a 21st century rock show. Formed in 2008 by NYC native Stefan Zeniuk, the group takes its cues from scratchy pre-war Cuban records and vintage betty boop cartoons, while freely incorporating a modern schizoid mentality. Incorporating equal parts Latin, rock, and jazz, Gato Loco is not genre music.
* TANGO 5 SENTIDOS > Ends March 18 >> Thalia Theatre.
* Henry Cole and his Afro-Beat Collective > Marzo 20 > Joe's Pub.
Established on the jazz scene but breaking out his own compositions for the first time, quicksilver Puerto Rican drummer Henry Cole and his Afro-Beat Collective are celebrating the release of Cole's debut album, Roots Before Branches. The ensemble shows how Fela Kuti's legacy can unite the diverse Caribbean sounds of Cole's island home, and how jazz can revel in the rootsy sounds of bomba and plena > Cole.
* Williamsburg Salsa Orchestra with Special guest Kali Mutsa > Marzo 23 > SOB's.
Altered States of the Altiplano: Kali Mutsa’s Electro Gypsy Cumbia Bumps Bolder than Bollywood > Whispering in your ear in Romany, dancing to glitchy electronics and booming tubas, Kali turns a hundred years of Chilean history into dancefloor-riffling songs with a sensual twist that make other pop divas pale in comparison.
* FRANCO DE VITA > Marzo 24 > Radio City Music Hall > Vita.
* SONORA PONCEÑA and OCHO Y MASA > Marzo 24 > Lehman Center.
La Sonora Ponceña, entertaining audiences for over five decades and featuring the piano virtuosity of Papo Lucca, will turn up the heat on Lehman's stage for an unforgettable night of old school salsa.* The Checkout: Live From 92YTribeca - featuring Alexis Cuadrado: A Lorca Soundscape / Manuel Valera & The New Cuban Express > Marzo 28 > 92Y.
Commissioned by Chamber Music America, “A Lorca Soundscape” reflects on Federico Garcia Lorca's 1930 book Poeta en Nueva York with a series of jazz pieces that use the poetry as lyrics. Lorca lived in NYC for a few months in 1929-30 and he wrote a heartfelt set of poems that reflect on the cultural shock and loneliness that he experienced at the time. The book is a raw social commentary that connects with themes that are still an important part of the American reality today including economic inequalities, racial-social discrimination and the brutality of the urban landscape. Poeta en Nueva York connects deeply with the current socioeconomic climate, the "Occupy" movement, and the general population discontent about how our system is working and Cuadrado's music, in turn, is a contemporary reflection on Lorca's themes and cityscape.
COMING IN APRIL:
* Chick Corea > Solo Performance > April 5 > Highline Ballroom.
* RODRIGO Y GABRIELA and C.U.B.A > Abril 20 > Radio City Music Hall > R&G.
This show is in support of the band’s soon to be released album Area 52 (release date: January 24th).
Area 52 contains nine of Rod and Gab's favorite songs from their own catalogue re-arranged and recorded in Havana with legendary producer Peter Asher and a 13-piece Cuban orchestra comprised of some of the country's finest young players.
During the tour and at Radio City Music Hall, Rodrigo y Gabriela will be performing with the band C.U.B.A. in order to showcase the thrilling and dynamic hybrid of metal, latin and jazz featured on the album in a live setting. It will mark the first time in their careers that Rodrigo y Gabriela have toured and performed with a backing band.
* Gilberto Santa Rosa > El Caballero de la Salsa Live in Concert > Abril 14 > Lehman Center.
Gilberto Santa Rosa is known to tropical music fans around the world as
"El Caballero de La Salsa" (The Gentleman of Salsa). He gained
worldwide recognition for a career spanning over 20 years as an
impressive sonero with his unique style of "soneo" (improvisation) in
salsa that permitted him to be successful in both the "tropical" and
"romantic" styles of the music. His string of hits and artistic record
of accomplishment reaffirms him as one of the most prolific masters of
popular Caribbean music.
