On Tuesday, February 27, The Downtown San Juan Cultural Arts District and UTRGV’s FESTIBA hosted EAST MEETS WEST featuring Latitude 39 at the Gelman Stained Glass Museum. It was a magical evening full of music transcending cultural boundaries, bridging the gap between Eastern and Western music and highlighting their profound influence on each other. Featuring Latitude 39 with Diana Seitz on violin, Nick May on saxophone, and Maya Tuylieva on piano. Special performance by Andrei Contreras and Dr. Dahlia Guerra on piano.
