All That Latin Jazz: Na'Rimbo

Photo courtesy of Na'Rimbo THE AMERICAN ART form known as jazz has been a global sensation for decades and has found a home in musical fusions all over the world. One of the more dazzling among them is found in the music of Na'Rimbo, a marimba group from the Mexican state of Chiapas.

Blending the music of the marimba (that large, xylophone-like contraption with wooden keys) with folk elements and traditional jazz instruments, Na'Rimbo's sound is of the never-before-heard variety.

You can see them rock the marimba tonight on the Kennedy Center's Millennium Stage.
