MAMBO MADNESS TOUR HITS U.S. CITIES AND DEBUTS IN CHINA
New York, NY (July 20, 2004) Jazz at Lincoln Center (JALC) announced today the dates for the Afro-Latin Jazz Orchestra's (ALJO) 2004 summer tour called Mambo Madness. The tour takes the critically acclaimed Latin jazz orchestra throughout the U.S and to a debut performance in Shanghai, China. In each city, the ALJO, led by pianist Arturo O'Farrill - son of the pioneering composer and bandleader Chico O'Farrill - will expose audiences to the rich traditions of Latin jazz by performing the genre's most beloved tunes by its greatest artists as well as new works and compositions by the ALJO. During the spring leg of the Mambo Madness tour, the band, Howard Reich of Chicago Tribune said, performed with such muscularity and intellectual rigor as to announce the arrival of a potentially definitive Latin jazz band.
