Tiempo Libre
Sunday, May 6th, 2012, 2pm Ventura College Green
4667 Telegraph Road, Ventura, CA
Three-time Grammy-nominated Cuban jazz sensation Tiempo Libre brings to the annual Sunday outdoor Ventura College Green concert an infectious rhythm and fresh Latin grooves. Their music is a fiercely intense mix of Latin jazz color and danceable Afro-Cuban rhythms, often combined with classical forms ala their “Bach in Havana” recording, a favorite of Artist Director Nuvi Mehta. As teen-agers growing up in Havana, Tiempo Libre developed their signature timba sound while secretly listening to forbidden American music.
