Southwest Meets Midwest with Delbert Anderson, Wade Fernandez & Felix Sainz
August 1 @ 6:00 pm – 8:30 pm
A special addition to this year’s Native Art Marketplace! Jazz trumpeter Delbert Anderson joins guitarist and cedar flutist Wade Fernandez and bassist Felix Sainz, Jr. for a unique and exciting musical experience that celebrates the connections between the American Midwest and Southwest. Presented by Little Eagle Arts Foundation (LEAF) and Taliesin Preservation, this concert reflects both Frank Lloyd Wright’s ties to Wisconsin and Arizona and LEAF’s representation of Native artists from the Great Lakes area and beyond. Experience a one-night-only convergence of these three accomplished musicians on the historic Hillside Theater stage.
