Outstanding woodwind quintet performs Latin American music both old and new

Since 2004, Quinteto Latino has performed music of Latino and Latin-American composers and used the performances to educate audiences around racial equity and cultural issues in the classical music field. Sharing the wonderful music of Latino composers and supporting them in their creation of new works and wider recognition are Quinteto Latino’s goals for every performance. Our program includes a piece recently commissioned by us: Mitos by Gabriela Lena Frank, as well as a tribute to the late composer Paul Desenne: El Recreo, La Cumbia, Los Vikingos, y Otras Miniaturas. We’re excited to perform these new pieces alongside a folk song and a well-known tango… old and new Latin American music!

With Armando Castellano, French horn; Leslie Tagorda, clarinet; Diane Grubbe, flute; Kyle Bruckmann, oboe and Jamael Smith , bassoon.
