NY Flamenco Festival: Antonio Lizana

Join us to finally fulfil that ongoing intention of seeing more live music in New York City!

This is going to be a good one. Experience Flamenco music direct from the South of Spain, this time blended exquisitely with jazz. With intensity and fervor, Antonio Lizana bridges the worlds of flamenco and jazz. 

Admired as a saxophonist, vocalist, and composer, he has mastered both traditions and brought international recognition to his recordings and performances. Among his many credits is collaborating on a recent CD with Arturo O’Farrill’s Afro Latin Jazz Orchestra that won a Grammy for Best Instrumental Latin Jazz Album. 

For this special occasion, he performs selections from his latest recording, Oriente, where he experiments with Eastern rhythms and sounds in his flamenco-jazz mix. For this program he will be accompanied on stage by a cadre of musicians.
