Pasajes: An Afro Latin Musical Odyssey

Joel LaRue Smith presents a concert of original Latin Jazz compositions. The complexity and profundity of Latin American music illustrates its significant relation to jazz and music of the African Diaspora. Bringing Afro Latin Jazz to Tufts insures that we are establishing a social context of the contributions that this music has made on influencing the landscape of popular American culture by breaking stereotypes and fostering dialogues as powerful tools towards “reconditioning” and changing the conversation about social justice.

This project is made possible (in part) by a Live Arts Boston grant from the Boston Foundation and by the Granoff Music Fund.
