Event Details
Lehman Center for the Performing Arts is proud to present four-time Latin GRAMMY Winner DIEGO EL CIGALA in his global tour concert of his new hit salsa album Indestructible on Saturday, April 8th, 2017 at 8pm. El Cigala’s collaborations with world-renowned Latin American artists have earned him a reputation for seamlessly melding the rhythms and melodies of his Spanish Gitano heritage with styles ranging from bolero to son, tango and Afro-Caribbean jazz, leading NPR to identify him as “a musical game-changer, the rare musician who single-handedly alters the direction of a genre.” This special concert introduces Indestructible, his latest album of ‘70s salsa classics reinvented with El Cigala’s soulful, inimitable flamenco touch. El Cigala will be joined by guest salsa artists Tito Allen, John “Dandy” Rodriguez, Jimmy Bosch, Ricky Gonzalez and Jimmy Delgado. Produced by Lehman Center and Leo Tizol.
