About the Work

Conga Player finds the rhythm of the city at the water’s edge. With the Brooklyn Bridge behind him and his eyes closed, a drummer lays his hands on the conga and lets the beat carry him. The work honors the percussion traditions that pulse through Latin, Afro-Caribbean, and American music, and the joy of keeping time together.

Music is more than sound.
It’s a bridge to a brighter tomorrow.
