LIMITED RUN PROJECT with classical's hottest performing pianist today!
Virtuoso pianist Yuja Wang joins forces with Gabriel Globus-Hoenich—founder and percussionist of the dynamic Latin-Caribbean jazz collective People of Earth—for an electrifying new collaboration being performed in a limited number of cities. Longtime friends since their days at the Curtis Institute of Music, Yuja and Gabe reunite to explore the vibrant rhythms and colors of Afro-Latin and Caribbean music through bold new arrangements and original compositions.
People of Earth (PoE) is a global music collective that has emerged as one of the United States's most exciting Latin and tropical bands. With an electrifying blend of music from Cuba, Puerto Rico, Brazil, and beyond, PoE delivers a high-energy experience that transcends borders. This 12-piece supergroup features a dynamic lineup of world-class musicians hailing from Cuba, Puerto Rico, Colombia, Canada, Switzerland, Haiti, Greece, and more. Together, they create a sound that is as diverse as it is powerful.
