The Lone Star Wind Orchestra will present Latin in Manhattan, featuring several premieres along with performances by a North Texas alto saxophonist virtuoso. The Latin-infused concert will feature works rooted in jazz, many composed in Manhattan, along with music inspired by Hispanic tradition.

Highlights include Leonard Bernstein’s Symphonic Dances from West Side Story; George Gershwin’s Cuban Overture; the world premiere of a movement from Orishas, composed by LSWO’s trumpeter Eddie Jiménez; and a performance by North Texas saxophone virtuoso Dr. Joey Resendez of a transcription of Astor Piazzolla’s Escualo, which has never been presented in the United States.
