Orquesta Alto Maiz
Description
"...truly unique ensemble that brings together the best of Latin American and Caribbean music with the best elements of jazz music. The result is a brand of music so irresistible your feet won't stay still." - Iowa Arts Council
de Jazz y Salsa Alto Maiz is something of a musical enigma. It is a popular eleven-piece Latin-jazz-dance band made up of musicians now living in the "heartland" of America. The Latin tinged music they perform, usually found in the clubs of New York City, L.A. or Miami, has secured them a reputation as one of the hottest bands in the Midwest.
This strange mix of "salsa" and tall corn works because of the years of musical experience the band members bring to the group, and because of their love for the music. Alto Maiz has been performing regionally and internationally since 1986 and have steadily built a strong base of Latin music fans and supporters wherever they've played.
