Jazz has been mixed with Latin American musical styles such as samba, bossa nova, tango, cumbia or salsa for decades. For example, Charlie Parker and Dizzy Gillespie playing in Latin groups or the addition of Latin percussion like the congas and timbals to traditional jazz ensembles. This crossover is still going on today; From legends performing música popular brasileira (MPB), Afro-Carribean rhytms from Surinam and the Dutch Antilles, to Cuban Salsa shows, followed by a salsa party in our café. BIMHUIS is the place to be for the best Latin Jazz.
