Delightful Music: The Fat Afro Latin Jazz Cats is the pre-professional big-band youth orchestra of the non-profit Afro Latin Jazz Alliance, a training musical organization to prepare youngsters for the field of music and jazz.
Founded in 2010 in the New York city area, this youth-based big band orchestra includes some of the city’s finest young musicians who hail from all over the five boroughs. Under the direction of ALJA’s Artistic Director Arturo O’Farrill along with trumpetist Jim Seeley, drummer Zack O’Farrill and alto sax player Chad Lefkowitz-Brown, they perform works from the Latin jazz repertory as well as standard jazz pieces.
Delightful Cinema: “Una Noche” – Mired in the nervous desperation of Havana, Raul dreams of escaping to Miami. When accused of assault, his only option is to flee. He appeals to his best friend, Elio, to abandon everything and help him reach his destiny, 90 miles across the ocean. Elio’s commitment is tested when he is torn between protecting his sister and his own desire to get out.
On this one night, full of hope and fraught with tensions, they face the biggest challenge of their lives. Written and directed by Lucy Mulloy. Not Rated, 90 Minutes, 2012, USA, UK, Cuba.
