The September 26 concert in Weill Hall will make jazz history as this performance is part of Wynton Marsalis’ final season as Artistic Director of Jazz at Lincoln Center and Music Director of the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra.
A 24-year-old vocalist from Veracruz, México, Lucía’s artistic vision bridges the gaps between jazz, Latin and pop music. In 2022, she became the first artist from Mexico to enter and win the Sarah Vaughan International Jazz Vocal Competition. Lucía’s debut album features her interpretations of jazz standards (“What a Difference a Day Makes,” “You Must Believe in Spring,” etc.), classic Spanish songs (“Silencio,” “La Llorona,” “Como Fue”) and current pop songs by Taylor Swift and Olivia Rodrigo.
