Tiempo Libre: Cuban Dance Party!

Kick off the fall season with the incendiary sounds of Grammy-nominated Tiempo Libre, one of the hottest young Latin bands today. Equally at home in concert halls, jazz clubs and dance venues, the Miami-based band has become known for high-voltage Latin jazz and seductive rhythms. Mix, mingle, and move it to the irresistible, dance-inducing rhythms of the Cuban powerhouse the Denver Post acclaimed "the top timba group in the United States today." Tiempo Libre are true modern heirs to the rich tradition of the music of their native Cuba.

At 7:00 PM, Boricuas Unidos will be teaching salsa lessons. Tiempo Libre hits the stage at 8:00 PM.

This event is sponored by the Fine Arts Center and the Office of Programs and Services for ALANA Students.
