Tito Puente Latin Music Series

The Tito Puente Latin Music Series has become a summer staple for good reason: it brings live salsa and Afro-Caribbean rhythms into neighborhood parks without the formality of a concert hall. This stop features Kristalis y Las Nenas del Swing, an all-women Latin ensemble led by flutist and vocalist Kristalis Sotomayor, whose sound draws from salsa, boleros, Latin jazz and Cuban traditions. The group’s Mozart Street Playground performance is a chance to hear a newer generation of musicians connecting classic styles with their own perspective. With the series’ free outdoor format, it’s an easy evening plan that feels rooted in the neighborhood rather than staged for it. Grab a spot, settle in and enjoy a summer night shaped by rhythms that have long been part of the local cultural fabric.
