MANZANITA — The Brazilian Strings Trio — a band that plays hot, sweet jazz with soulful South American flair — returns to Hoffman Center for the Arts at 7 p.m. Thursday, April 25, as part of their West Coast Tour.

Admission for this all-ages show is $20 (cash only).

The Brazilian Strings Trio is composed of three innovative instrumentalists.

Ted Falcon and Andrew Finn Magill are both multi-genre American violinists who, after years of living in Brazil, have become ambassadors of the growing Brazilian violin movement. Rounding out the trio is Brazilian guitarist Nando Duarte, a giant of the contemporary Brazilian music scene and an award-winning composer and arranger.

The venue is at 594 Laneda Ave.
