Performance Description: “Suspended Sea” explores Afro-Dominican rhythms fused with American jazz. It focuses on the explosiveness of Latin rhythms and American jazz's rich harmonic palette. It includes pambiche, bachata, gagá, palos, and bamboulá de Samaná. This nonet offers a different perspective of Latin jazz, incorporating elements outside traditional definitions.
