The Villalobos Brothers Make Their Central PA Debut

On Friday, February 10, 2017 at 7:30p.m., the Gettysburg College's Majestic Theater will present one of today's leading contemporary Mexican ensembles, the Villalobos Brothers. Their original compositions and arrangements masterfully blend and celebrate the richness of Mexican folk music with the intricate harmonies of jazz and classical music. The Villalobos Brothers deliver an intoxicating brew of brilliance, cadence and virtuosity that awaken the senses and mesmerize the listener.

The handsome Villalobos Brothers (Ernesto, Alberto and Luis) use their violins and voices to redefine contemporary Mexican music. They deliver a powerful message of love, brotherhood and social justice. Artistic Director and guitarist Humberto Flores, drummer Rosa Ávila and bassist Leo Sherman complete the line-up.

The group's virtuosic performances have delighted listeners from Latin America, India and Russia to Lincoln Center's American Songbook, Carnegie Hall and the Latin Grammy Awards. Their work has been recognized by numerous awards including the Vox Populi Award by the Independent Music Awards and the Ultimate Winners in WNYC's 2013 Battle of the Boroughs. In 2015, the group was chosen as Musical Artist in Residence for Lincoln Center Education, 92st Y, Latino Arts, and The New York Botanical Garden's record-breaking exhibit "Frida Kahlo: Art, Garden, Life".
