St. George’s will offer a special free concert on “Cinco de Mayo,” May 5, 2024, at 3:00 pm, featuring the Latin Feeling Band led by percussionist and friend of St. George’s, Alberto “Limon” Perez. All donations from the concert will support our shared ministry with Notre Dame Episcopal Church and School in Port-Au-Prince, Haiti. During this time of turmoil when many other churches and schools have closed in Haiti, Notre Dame remains open as a beacon of hope through our ongoing support.
“Limon” was born in Havana, Cuba and has spent his musical career of 30 years performing as a folkloric and popular dancer, as well as a vocalist and percussionist. His areas of expertise are the percussion and dance styles of rumba, Afro-Cuban folkloric tradition, and the popular styles of salsa. Known for their dynamic performances and fusion of traditional Latin sounds with the complex harmonies of jazz, the Latin Feeling Band promises an unforgettable musical journey. Founded by “Limon” Perez and featuring local musicians from the Fredericksburg Jazz and Latin Music scene, the group explores the vibrant rhythms and soulful melodies of Latin Jazz.
The concert is free with donations accepted at the door.
