Join the Festival for a program inspired by Latin dance music.
Conductor Jacomo Bairos returns to Sun Valley (he previously conducted The Villalobos Brothers in 2021) with a program inspired by Latin dance music. Co-Founder and Artistic Director of Miami’s Nu Deco Ensemble, Bairos is known for merging classical music with a wide range of styles, composers, and artists. Praised as “sonically spellbinding” by Billboard, Bairos and Nu Deco have released 14 albums. For Pops Night, Bairos has assembled a program featuring jazzy takes on recognizable tunes as well as impossible-to-resist Latin dance songs that will have you tapping your feet or perhaps dancing in the aisles (and on the lawn!).
