| A TRIBUTE TO EDDIE PALMIERI Saturday, February 10 at The Purchase PAC Join us for a very special evening as our creative musical community comes together to honor "El Maestro" – NEA Jazz Master and ten-time Grammy Award winner Eddie Palmieri. Renowned Latin Jazz artists including trumpeter Ray Vega and members of Palmieri's band will take the stage to celebrate "El Maestro" and pass the torch to the talented emerging artists of the Purchase Latin Jazz Orchestra – an ensemble made up of top students from the Purchase College Conservatory of Music. While he is no longer able to perform, Mr. Palmieri will be in attendance, saying a few words during the evening concert. This event is part of the Purchase College Latin Jazz Festival.
