LATIN JAZZ @ MONDO: Flamenco Jazz Fusion with THE BARBARA MARTINEZ GROUP in Concert
The popular monthly LATIN JAZZ @ MONDO music series brings to you a special & unique flamenco jazz fusion performance on Saturday, October 7, 2017 at 8:00pm at the cozy MONDO concert venue, located at 426 Springfield Avenue in downtown Summit, NJ. Come to enjoy an evening with The Barbara Martinez Group in concert. This exciting group will perform their special jazz fusion sound that has been gaining popular acclaim in NYC and beyond for the past few years. Vocalist and dancer Barbara Martinez will be joined on stage by guitarist Cristian Puig, pianist Gonzalo Grau and percussionist Guillermo Barron.
Barbara Martinez grew up performing in New York City. Originally from Venezuela, she comes from a lineage of Argentinian tango singers, including her grandmother Morenita Rey and great-aunt and renowned actress Libertad Lamarque. For almost 20 years Barbara has worked as a dancer and singer with several flamenco dance companies, as well as productions of Carmen at the Metropolitan Opera, where she sang as a child.
In 2010, Barbara performed to a sold out house at Carnegie Hall/Weill, singing an eclectic repertoire of flamenco, Latin and world music with a magnificent group of musicians. She has appeared in the documentary Sobre Las Olas A Story of Flamenco in the U.S. by Carolina Loyola-Garcia and the photography exhibit entitled 100 Years of Flamenco in New York at the NY Performing Arts Library.
Currently Barbara sings for flamenco dance companies like Carlota Santana Flamenco Vivo, Pasion y Arte, A Palo Seco, Sol y Sombra and often with Juanito Pascual in Boston. She also performs as a soloist with acclaimed flamenco and jazz musicians, bringing a lush and eclectic repertoire of flamenco, jazz and Latin, always interspersed with dance.
