Music

by Rayme Samuels

While temperatures may drop this winter, the music scene should stay mighty hot with plenty of concerts and musical festivals.

Superstar concert tours are soon heading south. R&B Prince Charmings Omarion and Ne-Yo are scheduled for the Scream Tour Nov. 22 at the American Airlines Arena. Prepare for sultry crooning, fireworks, and plenty of excited teen girls.

After the release of his long-awaited smash hip-hop album in September, Justin Timberlake has found his way back to his one true love. Not Cameron, live performance. The “FutureSex/LoveShow” tour will be hitting Miami on Feb. 24, 2007. But that’s not all. Remember the punky diva with the fluorescent-colored hair? We hope the opening act of Pink for JT’s show can “get the party started” as well as she did years back.

Shakira’s “Oral Fixation” tour returns to Miami on Dec. 6, 7 and 9 at the American Airlines Arena. For those who missed the spectacular show the first time around, be sure to buy tickets early.

There are more than just large stage shows in store. The season’s endless music festivals have their appeal as well. Locals and tourists have been waiting long for the Bang Music Festival to shake Bicentennial Park on Nov. 11. With headlining acts like Common, Daft Punk, Tiesto, Yerba Buena, Roger Sanchez and Damian “Jr. Gong” Marley, fans will happily get exactly what they paid for: an assortment of the greatest music in reggae, electronica, house, soul and funk. A highlight of the tour will be a performance by reunited ’80s rockers Duran Duran.

Mantra Sounds Records hosts the MANTRA International World Music Festival on Feb. 9 and 10, 2007, showcasing live concerts and dance performances representing many intriguing global cultures.

The Carnival Center for the Performing Arts will host the Subtropics Experimental Music & Sound Arts Festival from Feb. 23 to March 4, 2007, with a series of musical performances in conjunction with Merce in Miami, a two-week citywide celebration of dance, music and art.

For classical music aficionados, the Miami Bach Society will be hosting the International Tropical Baroque Music Festival VII from March 3 to 11, 2007 in Coral Gables.

On March 27, the Ultra Music Festival will wrap up the weeklong Winter Music Conference homage to the electronic scene at Bicentennial Park. This is a must-hear event for devoted clubbers ready to party with some of the most famous DJs in the world.
Traditional concertgoers will not be disappointed over the next few months. For those interested in all things European, mod English rockers The Who will perform at the Bank Atlantic Center on Nov. 20.

The stages at the Carnival Center for the Performing Arts will see a lot of action this winter with performances that cross all music genres. Grease star Olivia Newton-John will visit on Dec. 2. Beautiful Cape Verdean morna performer Lura will grace the stage on Dec. 8. Cuban Jazz great and Miami Beach jazz club namesake Arturo Sandoval is slated to play what will surely be a memorable gig on Dec. 16. Brazilian Minister of Culture and musical icon Gilberto Gil will treat with Brazilian beats on March 20, 2007.

And last but certainly not least, it’s not unusual at all that Tom Jones will play to hundreds of adoring fans at the Bank Atlantic Center on April 13, 2007. With all these choices, make sure to have a comfy pair of dancing shoes ready.
