The New York Pops returns to Queens Public Library at Richmond Hill with their Latin jazz combo, led by Javier Diaz, a percussionist in the orchestra. A specialist in Afro-Cuban percussion, Diaz has appeared with world renowned artists. This family-friendly event will feature beloved Latin Jazz classics, contemporary favorites, and original music performed by some of New York City’s finest musicians. Join us for an afternoon of rhythmic and spirited tunes! The New York Pops: Latin Jazz Combo is made possible by the Cultural Immigrant Initiative, designated by Council Member Lynn Schulman, to celebrate the diverse communities of New York City. This program is supported, in part, by public funds from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs in Partnership with the City Council.
