About the event
What better way to spend a Sunday than in the company of friends or loved ones, with live jazz, brunch and fine wines? And this week we have the wonderful Maiuko Quinteto.
The Quintet brings heavy influences of Afro Jazz, blending African rhythms and cadences with sinews of Jazz & Blues filtered through contemporary styles and older Celtic traditions. Expect a journey through time, over original compositions plus a few carefully selected and rearranged familiar tunes.
