Elvis Crespo to perform at Lehman Center
Lehman Center for the Performing
Arts and Goya Foods will start off the
new decade of Latin concerts with the
multi Grammy Award winner Elvis
Crespo, one of the most popular and
sought-after Latin artists in the world,
on Saturday, January 25, at 8 p.m.
Crespo, with his mastery of the
merengue tradition blended with
his modern, yet accessible take on
bachata, salsa, and other tropical
genres, burst onto the contemporary
Latin music scene in 1998 with his
hit solo debut album Suavemente and
has continued to command large audiences
worldwide. With a career spanning
over two decades, he continues
to leave his mark on the music industry
with eleven studio albums and 27
Billboard-charted singles under his
belt. In 2018, Elvis Crespo’s merengueinfused
single “Ella Me Besó” climbed
into the Billboard Latin Airplay Top
25, and he was also honored with a
Latin Grammy nomination for Diomedizao,
his tribute album to Diomedes
Diaz, where he melded classic vallento
and cumbia sounds with the tropical
rhythms of merengue.
In 2019, he released the album
Suavemente 20 Anniversary, that includes
nine of his merengue tunes that
have been revamped to a plena version,
plus a new bonus merengue track
‘Abracadabra.’

Arts is on the campus of Lehman College/
