The Thomsen Club at Field Hall Welcomes: Tito Puente Jr.

Description

Tito Puente Jr. Brings the Heat to The Thomsen Club! If Tito Puente, the legendary "Rey del Timbal," defined mambo, then his son, Tito Puente Jr., is carrying the royal torch into the 21st century. Join us at the newly announced Field Arts & Events Hall Jazz Club, The Thomsen Club, for an evening with the prince of Latin rhythm! Tito Jr. doesn't just play his father's music; he embodies its vibrant spirit. With a deep reverence and undeniable passion, he keeps the magic alive, "There was magic in the music my father made. It made people happy all over the world." Don't miss this chance to experience a musical legacy that transcends generations. Experience the thrill of classics from his heartfelt tribute album, "In My Father's Shoes," alongside the infectious energy of his own creations, including his latest release, "Got Mambo?" Enjoy a dynamic performance that blends the timeless essence of mambo—born in Cuba and ignited in America—with a fresh, contemporary flair. Be swept away pulsating rhythms of timbales, soaring melodies of horns, and the irresistible groove that defines mambo. As Antonio Arcaño described it, mambo is "the rhythmic charm, informality, and eloquence of the Cuban people," a vibrant fusion of piano, flute, violin, bass, percussion, and the ever-present congas. Get ready to dance as Tito Puente Jr. ignites The Thomsen Club with the authentic sound of mambo!
