As part of the 7th Annual Central Brooklyn Jazz Festival, an all-star gathering of today's great Latin jazz performers will pay homage to the legendary Afro-Caribbean jazz masters no longer living.. A portion of the proceeds will go to the not for profit arts organization, the Central Brooklyn Jazz Consortium.

Brooklyn's newest, state of the art performance venue, the Kumble Theater for the Performing Arts located on the campus of Long Island University in MetroTech Downtown Brooklyn will serve as the stage for this historic musical event. This elegant, 320 seat theater provides finely tuned acoustics and is impeccably crafted for musical performances. Off street parking is available.

Original compositions as well as new arrangements to classic songs will be performed by this once in a lifetime, ALL STAR BAND made up of some of the great Afro-Caribbean Jazz musicians of today.

Tickets are available online and can also be purchased in advance at the theater's box office, www.kumbletheater.org / 718.488.1624.
