July 23---The Robert Kyle Brazilian Trio performs instrumental bossa novas and Brazilian jazz classics.

July 30---The Louie Cruz Beltran Ensemble blends high energy salsa with jazz, R&B and pop.

Aug. 6---The Mitchell Long Group features Afro-Brazilian arrangements with Mitchell singing in Portuguese.
