A SPECIAL night of Latin music is on offer at Ilminster Arts Centre.

The Latin Jazz Special with Conjunto Gringo includes jazz dance, Latin, salsa, samba and bossa nova music.

Much of the Meeting House’s floor space will be left open for dancing, with seating in the hall limited to about 40.

The cafe and bar will be open all evening for those who need an occasional break.

Anyone who only wants to listen to the music should book and arrive early to reserve a seat.

The Andy Hagur band Conjunto Gringo, based in Bristol, features trumpets, flugelhorn, trombone, saxophones, guitar, piano, bass, drums and percussion.

The octet is an expanded version of the popular quintet which visited the centre two years ago and is one of the leading West Country bands.

Tickets priced £16 can be booked on 01460-54973 with a pre-show supper at £28.

The concert is on Friday, February 13, at 8pm and the pre-show supper starts at 7pm.
