About the event
Two shows - 3 & 7PM
Join BAMS Fest and Third Row Events for an amazing virtual concert with Magos Herrera streaming live from the historic Academy of Music Theatre. Magos will celebrate women in music through a repertoire of Latin American classics and originals including pieces by Violeta Parra, songs inspired by Alfonsina Storni, among others.
Magos is best known for her eloquent vocal improvisation and her singular bold style, which embraces elements of contemporary jazz with Ibero-American melodies and rhythms singing in Spanish, English, and Portuguese. Regarded as one of the most active vocalists in the Latin American jazz scene, she is also a United Nations spokesperson for UN Women UNITE, a program promoting the elimination of violence against women, and the UN's "He For She" campaigns to promote gender equality. An all-star ensemble will join Magos featuring Luis Perdomo on piano, Sam Minaie on bass, and Alex Kautz on drums.
Partial proceeds from these shows will benefit BAMS Fest and our year around programs.
