Jibaro Jazz with Pedro Guzman & Viviana Diaz

His style of performance helped elevate the Puerto Rican cuatro, moving it beyond the traditionally rural "jíbaro" setting in which it had long been associated.A jíbaro is a Puerto Rican term for a country or mountain dweller, symbolizing simplicity, honesty, humility, and a deep connection to the island's traditions. Guzmán's music embodies these qualities while offering a rich reflection of Puerto Rican culture and identity.Guzmán blends traditional folk melodies performed on the Puerto Rican cuatro—a ten-string instrument similar to a small guitar—with elements of jazz and contemporary popular music. His performance at C-Note will feature a four-piece ensemble including the cuatro, guitar, güiro, and bongos, creating a vibrant and authentic celebration of Puerto Rico's musical heritage.Concert Times:7:30 PM - 8:45 PM9:30 PM - 10:45 PM
