Ohio Regional Music Arts and Cultural Outreach (ORMACO) and the Friends of the Secrest Arboretum continue their summer Music at the Arboretum concert series on Friday, June 27, 2025 at 6:30 pm with Sammy DeLeon y su Orquestra.
Sammy de León is one of the most recognized Latin bandleaders in Northern Ohio. He plays the timbales, a twin set of metal-encased, single-headed drums with a cowbell and a cymbal on the side. He began to play professionally at age 13 and has since played alongside the greatest of the genre: Tito Puente and Grán Combo de Puerto Rico, among others.
For the past decade, he has fronted his own band, Sammy De León y Su Orquesta, which includes well known pianist Jackie Warren and multiple horn players and singers. Playing a broad spectrum of Latin dance music styles, they have gained a large multi-cultural audience.
In the event of rain, the concert will be held at Fisher Auditorium, 1680 Madison Avenue, Wooster, OH 44691. For more information go to ormaco.org, or call 419-853-6016.
