About This Event
Live at the Gantries at the Kupferberg Center for the Arts pairs Ivan Llanes with collaborator Hajiyo. Llanes, a New York–based timba and Latin-jazz performer, works through tight arrangements that emphasize rhythmic precision and steady improvisation. Hajiyo brings a live-room practice—modest streaming presence and an emphasis on timing and ensemble listening—while Llanes moves between ensemble roles and front‑line leadership.
