La vida es un sueño

Saturday, March 15, 2025 7 PM Bronx Music Hall
Attend a screening of the film La vida es un sueño by Cuban filmmaker Arlety Veunes Toro. Learn about Cuban musician Arsenio Rodríguez, a transformative figure who holds the same position in Afro-Cuban–based dance music (salsa) that Louis Armstrong holds in jazz. A master of the Cuban tres, he is responsible for adding the conga drum, piano, and mambo horn to the Cuban son. The film screening will be followed by a concert of his music performed by the Bobby Sanabria Multiverse Big Band, a multi-Grammy–nominated ensemble with albums that include West Side Story Reimagined and VOX HUMANA
