Question: What do you get when you mix Puerto Rican salsa rhythms, jazz standards, original charts of “El Cantante” Hector Lavoe, trombones, congas, timbales, bongos, piano and a bass with the “voice” of Willie Hernandez?
 
Answer:  A fiery concert for Latin Jazz lovers and Salsa dancers!

Willie Hernandez:  El Paso’s notable showman, Latin crooner and percussionist for the popular salsa band Azucar along with other jazz and salsa bands.   In Austin, he is the sonero and percussionist for Jazz Puerto Rico (Jazz PR).  Willie is recognized as “El Cantante del Pueblo”.

Jazz Puerto Rico (Jazz PR): Considered to be one of Austin’s top Latin-Jazz and salsa bands.  Founded in 1989 by trombonist and arranger Randy Zimmerman, Jazz PR began as an instrumental Latin-Jazz project in Austin, Texas and later merged with El Paso’s own percussionist and vocalist Willie Hernandez.  Jazz PR is known for its three trombones rhythm section and showcases original arrangements of Latin classics and jazz standards along with the Caribbean sounds of Puerto Rican salsa.

Proceeds of the event benefit the mission of JazzElPaso Connection by sponsoring, promoting, and showcasing quality live jazz entertainment in the greater El Paso region and by contributing to the education and enrichment of our area’s youth in support of the El Paso Youth Jazz Ensemble.
