StringBeans:

String instruments, congas and frijoles (beans, habichuelas) might seem like a strange mixture of ingredients, but in the hands of percussionist Annette A. Aguilar & StringBeans, her Latin Brasilian Jazz band, they become a musical feast. This exquisite ensemble blends Afro-Cuban and Afro-Brasilian rhythms with harp, guitar, violin, piano and bass creating the unique StringBeans string and percussion sound. This extraordinary group of outstanding musicians performs under the direction of concert and recording artist Aguilar, who leads, arranges and writes some of the groups compositions.
