Shirazette Tinnin plays with the Gabriel Alegria Afro-Peruvian Sextet at Multicultural Arts Center

A wonderful fusion of Afro-Peruvian rhythms and jazz harmonies, the Sextet has an incredible flair for thrilling culturally authentic and modern music. This group combines Afro-Peruvian folklore from the coast and the spirit of jazz music to woo the audience. Time Out New York describes the music as "pieces full of color and drive, reflecting an immersion in the black music of Peru's coastal regions."
