LATIN JAZZ @ MONDO Music Series Concert with Latin Grammy Nominee JULIO BOTTI & THE SOUTH AMERICAN JAZZ PROJECT
The popular monthly LATIN JAZZ @ MONDO music series brings to you a special concert event with two time Latin Grammy nominated saxophonist Julio Botti and his South American Jazz Project on Saturday, July 22, 2017 at 8:00pm. Teatro Sí brings to you this cultural opportunity at the stage at the unique & cozy MONDO venue, located at 426 Springfield Avenue in downtown Summit, NJ.
Julio Botti (saxophone, clarinet and flute player) was born in Bell Ville, Argentina. In 1996 he graduated from "Escuela de Musica Popular La Colmena" in Cordoba, Argentina, and went on to study classical saxophone in Cuba at "La Escuela Nacional de Arte de La Habana". From Cuba he moved to Madrid, Spain where he recorded various albums and took to teaching in various parts of Europe and South America. Most recently he has been dedicating his time to NYC public schools as a woodwind teacher.
Julio Botti was nominated for a Latin Grammy at the 14th and 17th annual Latin Grammy Awards for Best Tango Album "Tango Nostalgias" in 2013 & "Sax to Tango" in 2016. Julio Botti has taken his love of South American rhythms and modern jazz and created an electrifying new quartet that fuses the ethnic rhythms of the Southern Cone with Jazz.
Argentinian saxophonist Julio Botti is joined by the South American Jazz Project, including a quartet of three other young forces in the New York City jazz scene; Andrew Baird (guitar), Eduardo Withrington (keys), and Tiago Michelin (drums).
Concert tickets are priced at $20 in advance / $25 at the door. Reservations & info are also available by calling the Teatro Si box office at 908-301-9496 or purchase tickets in person at MONDO in Summit. We recommend enjoying a fine meal at one of several fine restaurants in downtown Summit before or after the show. Event proceeds benefit programming efforts at Teatro Si, a 501(c) 3 not for profit organization.
