Latin Sounds: Natal

Saturday, August 23, 2025 at 5:00 PM to 7:00 PM

LACMA, Los Angeles

Spend your Saturday evenings with world-renowned artists performing everything from Indigenous music to the latest sounds from Argentina, Brazil, Cuba, Mexico, Peru, and Los Angeles! These free concerts are presented Saturday evenings from Memorial Day weekend in May to Labor Day weekend in September. This week, join us for a concert with **Natal**. Sebastián Natal, from Montevideo, Uruguay, and now in NYC, began his career accompanying legends of Afro-Uruguayan music, and now tours with artists such as Pedrito Martínez. The Sebastián Natal Candombe Septet performs Afro-Uruguayan Candombe jazz fusion and explores the rich, centuries-old Afro-Uruguayan tradition of candombe, an expression declared as Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity by UNESCO. Natal has been featured at venues such as Jacob's Pillow, Blue Note NYC, Lincoln Center Atrium, and other leading festivals across the country.
