Jazz Concert in La Plaza de Teatros September 19, 2009


The jazz band had its first concert today in Quito, specifically in the Plaza de Teatros in the Old Town, or the old Spanish colonial neighborhood.  It was an awesome place to have a concert, surrounded by beautiful buildings on all sides in the heart of Quito.  The turn out was excellent with nearly 200 people there to listen, my host family included. 

 

The band sounded sick.  The repertoire was as follows: The Chicken, Ya Gotta Try, Oye Como Va (which really struck a chord with the Latinos), Body and Soul, Blues Anonimo, Two Seconds to Midnight, and Song for Bilbao.  It was such a great experience to play with a band so talented and in such an incredible place.
