Oquendo has performed on stage and in studio with legends like Celia Cruz, Rub?n Blades and Eddie Palmieri. In his role as a community leader and educator, he is the music director for Pelham Preparatory Academy in the Bronx and assistant director of the All-City Latin Ensemble, where his work with students has earned him acclaim from Good Morning America as a 2022 Class Act teacher. His big band's sophisticated use of free improvisation and creative arrangements ensures that the essence of the music continues to thrive. Prior to the concert, dance instructors will share some simple steps so that even newcomers to the Latin jazz scene will be able to keep up.

Concert | Popular Music from Brazil


This event features the composer and singer/songwriter Rog?. A 20 year veteran and standard bearer of the modern m?sica popular brasileira scene with duet albums in collaboration with samba legends like Arlindo Cruz and Seu Jorge, Rog? recently stepped away from Brasilian stardom, moving to Los Angeles and releasing his 2023 album, Curyman, on a U.S. label. That LP is more of a refinement than a remaking of Rog?'s enchanting, spirited sound, imbued with raucous funk and the heartbreaking melancholy of saudade. Rog?'s headlining concert represents a rare opportunity to see him perform live on the east coast.

Performance | Theater and Improv in One Show


For over 10 years and nearly 100 shows featuring actors and improvisers, Michael Patrick Thornton's critically acclaimed You & Me has brought audiences from the worlds of theater and improv together under one roof to enjoy an entire show improvised out of thin air. From Steppenwolf, Second City, The Den, and iO Theatres in Chicago to Bewley's Cafe in Dublin, Ireland, a single bentwood chair sits center stage, a guest is brought out, and a world of rich characters unfolds in real time, passing in the blink of an eye. You & Me is consistently one of the most daring and groundbreaking theatrical endeavors and proves that all we need to make something magical is, well, you & me.
