Sun August 3

18:00 Grupo Puerto
"Grupo Puerto"

Grupo Puerto presents an energetic blend of Afro-Latin grooves and melodic jazz, enriched with elements of Latin American folklore. The band unites generations of the Dutch jazz scene—from established names to emerging talent—creating a style that is fresh, intense, and expressive. Their playing is rhythmically layered, spatially sophisticated, and always seeking interaction. For this concert, they feature a special lineup featuring Patricia Mancheño on bass. Let yourself be carried away by this rhythmic journey full of fire and finesse.

Initiator and saxophonist Irene Caumel began this session series with three pillars: supporting emerging musicians, creating mentorship opportunities with experienced artists, and connecting jazz scenes in various cities.
