More than just expert, authentic, tight Latin jazz, it’s a true work of art. And when you hear its infectious rhythms, good luck trying not to move.

The Spanish Harlem Orchestra, winner of three Grammy Awards, sets the gold standard for excellence in authentic, New York-style salsa. The 13-piece ensemble is on a mission to keep the musical legacy of salsa dura (“hard salsa”) alive and expand its audience to people who love great music—not just Latin music. Grounded in the past while focused on the future, the orchestra strives to keep salsa dura relevant, creating a unique and fresh approach.

Onstage, the orchestra comes at audiences in full force from start to finish. Its energy, rich sound, and musical precision leave audiences mesmerized until the last note. With an unwavering respect for salsa’s storied history, the world-class ensemble creates an unparalleled musical experience.
