Metro Mambo: Latin Music in DC From The Casbah to The Zanzibar, the nightclubs, dancers, and musicians of D.C.s Latin jazz and dance music scene have long reflected Washington at its most diverse. Many African-American bandleaders, such as Hedrick Mitchell and Maria Rodriguez, were involved, starting in the 1950s and 1960s. Join radio personality Jim Byers, host of WPFW 89.3 FMs Latin Flavor: Classic Edition, for the first of a six-part series of concerts and lectures highlighting a multi-cultural Latin music scene that has thrived with quiet intensity and great popularity in the Nations Capital.
