Virtual Birdland: Sunday Nights with Arturo O'Farrill & the ALJO

Recorded remotely from locations as diverse as Madrid, Los Angeles and New York City, Arturo O'Farrill and the mighty Afro Latin Jazz Orchestra are continuing their Sunday night Birdland residency in an online setting. Please join us every Sunday at 8:30pm ET.

Following last week's "Best Of..." retrospective, we're back this week with new music for you. Alongside a Tito Puente classic and an Arturo O'Farrill original, we also have a special archival performance from our 2019 trip to the NYU Abu Dhabi Arts Center! Accompanied by live chat and commentary from Arturo and the ALJO musicians.
