Free Concert Series in Forest Park
A free autumn concert series is coming to Forest Park in Woodhaven, presented by Goodhaven, The Forest Park Trust, Flushing Town Hall, and state Sen. Addabbo.
The series will feature the neighborhood band Juntas Chicas, an experimental band that combines classic Mexican music with modern genres like flamenco, cumbia, and jazz.
- Tabla player Avirodh Sharma
- Sarangi player Rohan Misra
The concert series was orchestrated by John Colpitts, a Connecticut-born percussionist and founder of Goodhaven, a production company.
Colpitts collaborated with the Forest Park Trust to apply for a grant from The Flushing Town Hall, describing it as a "long process" that began when he encountered the Forest Park Bandshell "five or six years ago".
