Prieto has served on the Music Faculty at NYU since 2005, toured Europe with the groundbreaking group Columna B and was the recipient of a 2011 MacArthur “genius grant.” He received a Latin Grammy Nomination for “Best New Artist” in 2007. This concert is a co-production with The Jazz Bakery, and is made possible in part by a new grant from Chamber Music America.
