Work Description:
Afropean Affair is a three-part suite that explores the themes of present, past and future. The first movement,
Cosas Lindas que Viven Ahora (Beautiful Things Living Today), has a very Cuban folkloric influence. The
second section, Last Season's Sorrow, incorporates classical elements. A New Day Emerging, the concluding
movement, gives us a glimpse as to where I believe Latin Jazz is going musically.
