Carnegie Hall Citywide: La Excelencia
Fierce, dynamic, and unapologetically bold, La Excelencia reinvents salsa with an electrifying blend of tradition and modern edge. Inspired by the raw energy of 1970s salsa dura and today’s social landscape, this powerhouse band delivers hard-hitting rhythms, socially conscious lyrics, and unstoppable groove. With high-energy performances that feel more like rock concerts than a salsa show, La Excelencia brings its signature sound to Citywide for an unforgettable sync of music and movement at Bryant Park.
Carnegie Hall Citywide is the Hall’s free concert series that brings a diverse lineup of live performances to neighborhoods throughout New York City. Presented in partnership with esteemed community organizations across the five boroughs, the series highlights dynamic artists from a variety of musical genres—including classical, jazz, folk, Latin music, and more.
Bryant Park Picnic Performances presented by Bank of America is a free outdoor festival that welcomes all New Yorkers to experience the city’s vibrant arts and culture. The series provides a platform for extraordinary artists and serves as a vital outdoor venue for a wide array of New York’s cultural institutions.
