Summer Festival Concert – Latin jazz pianist Irving Flores

Join us for a special Summer Festival Concert featuring San Diego pianist and composer Irving Flores. A celebrated Latin jazz artist with more than four decades of experience, Flores is known for his vibrant piano style, inventive arrangements, and dynamic performances that blend jazz, Afro-Cuban rhythms, and Latin musical traditions.

Flores has performed and collaborated with many acclaimed musicians, including Poncho Sanchez, Spanish Harlem Orchestra, Gilbert Castellanos, Peter Sprague, Horacio “El Negro” Hernández, and others. His work as a composer and arranger has also included projects with the San Diego Symphony, demonstrating his wide-ranging artistry and deep connection to the region’s music community.

Enjoy an afternoon of live music in the Winn Room as Flores brings his signature energy, rhythmic sophistication, and expressive musicianship to the Library’s Summer Festival Concert series.
