Grammy award winning musicians to debut at Alma Cocina Latina this Saturday
Alma Cocina Latina’s summer music series continues as we welcome world renowned artists, Cesar Orozco and Jorge Glem this Saturday at 7PM for a cultural experience unlike any other.
César Orozco was born and raised in Cuba, and moved to Venezuela in 1998, where he developed an important and prolific career as a pianist, arranger, composer and producer. Many say he has managed to make the best combination between Cuban, Jazz and Venezuelan music. Orozco has worked with world famous musicians and is a two-times Latin Grammy nominee (2019 & 2021) for Best Arrangement.
Venezuela’s musical treasure, Jorge Glem, is a composer, producer and the greatest living master of the infectiously rhythmic four-string Venezuelan cuatro. Hailing from Cumaná, Venezuela, Glem has set out with a clear and driven purpose of presenting the Venezuelan cuatro as a universal instrument. His talent has allowed him to share the stage with worldwide figures and important music personalities enabling him to fuse the sound of this traditional instrument in genres such as jazz, salsa, bluegrass, rock and pop.
Together, for one night only at Alma Cocina Latina, both performers will explore their instruments to the fullest by mixing the colors of traditional genres such as Venezuelan joropo, merengue and Cuban son with world renowned masterpieces from pop, jazz and Latin American music. Get ready for a fascinating journey full of rhythms, melodies and harmonies through covers and original songs by both Glem and Orozco.
Join us for a very special evening filled with world class music and delicious Venezuelan cuisine. There will be a $10 cover charge per diner. Walk-ins will be accepted, but reservations are recommended. Please make a reservation on Resy.
