    About This Event

    Miguel Zenón and Luis Perdomo present El Arte del Bolero at The Jazz Gallery. Zenón, a Puerto Rican alto saxophonist and composer who moves between modern jazz language and Caribbean rhythmic logic, and Perdomo, a Venezuelan pianist and composer who often blends Latin influences into jazz, foreground those perspectives in a program built around the bolero.

    About El Arte del Bolero

    At The Jazz Gallery, alto saxophonist Miguel Zenón and pianist Luis Perdomo bring *El Arte del Bolero* into a small-room New York context, treating the bolero as both repertoire and method. The set moves between modern jazz harmony and the rhythmic grammar of the Caribbean, with Perdomo’s Venezuelan touch shaping the music’s weight and pacing. In a city where Latin music and jazz have long overlapped, the project reads as a study in lineage rather than a crossover. The careful structuring is the point, and it changes how familiar songs are heard.
