Tuesday 25 March – Martes en Marte
Martes en Marte has emerged from graduates of the Queensland Conservatorium Griffith University and is now connecting with various music-loving communities: from the Latin dance scene, to the Jazz world. The focus of the group is to bring a jazz sensitivity to the study of Afro-Cuban soundscapes, exploring the improvisatory and experimental potential of traditional Cuban and Latin folk music of the African diaspora.
This performance spans vocal acapella moments, to a full salsa ‘orquesta’, with timbales, a conga section, bongos, bass, pianist, and horn section. Martes enMarte will present a selection of well-known Afro-Cuban traditional works, both sacred and secular, originals, and some Afro-Cuban reimagining’s of Jazz standards. The audience will be able to listen and relax as well as explode into dance during this spectacular celebration of Cuban, Latin and African rhythms and melodies!

In April 2025 for the 110th anniversary of ANZAC day, Choir Works will present a choral program of peace and remembrance, allowing the audience to commemorate and reflect on all that has been and still is being sacrificed for our freedom.
