Great Music, Lots of Seating, Great Sound and Great Vibe...And it's FREE!
Come and enjoy the sounds and bring all your friends too!
On Saturday, July 21, hear Latin jazz and Colombian folk by Pablo Mayor-Folklore Urbano (7pm), a high-energy 12-piece ensemble setting new heights in the genres of both world music and Latin jazz and traditional bomba and plena of Puerto Rico infused with rock and salsa by Viento de Agua (8:30pm). Their name means “the wind of water," a reference to the thick air before a tropical storm.
Sunday, July 22 features one-hour sets by Mozayik (5pm), performing their own brand of Haitian-Creole drawn on classical, gospel and funk influences; Jeff Newell's New-Trad Octet (7pm), who infuse the sounds of a New Orleans marching band with Caribbean beats; and Jos Conde y Ola Fresca (8:30pm), offering jazz alternative Latin dance music influenced by Cuban sn, salsa, funk and jazz.
Free summer outdoor concerts are at the Rainbow Band Shell on the Kingsborough Community College campus. Picnicking is encouraged; bring your own or buy at our concession stands.
Parking is FREE. All concerts are RAIN OR SHINE. (Rain location: Leon M. Goldstein Performing Arts Center.) To get to the campus via mass transit, take the B1 or B49 bus to the last stop and either walk to the campus or take the free MTA shuttle bus; the Q train (Brighton Beach stop) and F train (Avenue X stop) both meet up with the B1 bus. A free beach shuttle will be offered on the two Festival Weekends, linking Coney Island Beach, Brighton Beach, and Manhattan Beach to the campus.
Call (718) 368-6680.
