LAVOE EN SINFÓNICA

A legendary role reprised: Domingo Quiñones — “El Más Que Canta” — returns to the stage at Lehman Center as salsa icon Héctor Lavoe, 25 years after his unforgettable, critically acclaimed performance in the 1999 New York City musical ¿Quién Mató a Héctor Lavoe?

That landmark production became a cultural phenomenon, hailed by critics and audiences alike. The New York Times noted: “Nobody leaves the theater without having a visceral reaction, in part because Domingo is so good.” This praise reflects Quiñones’ uncanny ability to channel Lavoe’s spirit with raw emotion, vocal mastery, and stunning improvisation, making the role truly unforgettable.

Now, in this special theatrical concert event, Quiñones brings Lavoe’s music and story to life once more—backed by a symphony and featuring the legendary Héctor Lavoe Band. From Ponce, Puerto Rico, to the vibrant dancehalls of New York City, Héctor Lavoe’s journey unfolds through the timeless anthems that defined salsa music.

Audiences will relive classics like “Mi Gente,” “Periódico de Ayer,” and “El Todopoderoso,” experiencing the magic of two masters—Lavoe, the king of salsa improvisation, and Quiñones, celebrated for his own dazzling soneos and commanding stage presence.

One night only. One legend honored. Witness Domingo Quiñones shine as Héctor Lavoe in Lavoe en Sinfónica.
