Spotlighting Latin jazz here should be considered compulsory, and few are better suited to showcase it than Dimas Sanchez. As one of the city\u2019s preeminent ambassadors of Latin music, Sanchez doesn\u2019t simply play the music, he spreads the gospel of its heritage with scholarly knowledge and purpose. <\/p>\n

The Afro-Latin Jazz Project is a septet specializing in Caribbean music traditions. This program \u2014 titled Afro Antillano \u2014 will be a synthesis of the Afro-Caribbean pulses of Puerto Rico, Cuba and the Dominican Republic. It\u2019ll be a dazzling study of our sister region in all its complexity and color. <\/p>\n

7:30 p.m. Saturday, March 28, Timucua Arts Foundation, timucua.com<\/a>, $22.50-$30.<\/p>\n
