Musician / Producer / Entertainment Consultant

I recorded my orchestra’s first cd live in concert (Henry Brun & the Latin Playerz), at the Sunken Gardens Theater, May 27, 1992. I was sharing stage with one of Texas’ great musicians: Kirk Whalum. I released the cd live in concert, at the Sunken Gardens Theater, October 24, 1992. I was sharing stage with one of my biggest musical influences: ten time Grammy Award winner and NEA Jazz Master Eddie Palmieri.

The audience’s reaction was amazing both times. They truly showed their love and respect for the band. The headliner’s shared their love for us as well.
After our concert on the release date, we had our cd release party at one of San Antonio’s cultural hot spots at the time – Saluté, on St. Mary’s Street. I invited the audience to join us afterwards, and that they did! To add a little “pilón” (English translation means added bonus), Eddie Palmieri’s band came over and joined us for another concert, this one being free to the public. When word got out about what was taking place, we pretty much had the whole strip’s attendance at, inside, patio, outside on the streets, parking lots, and every possible corner that would get you close to the venue’s doors or vicinity thereof.

It doesn’t get better than that. San Antonio was celebrating the release of our music!
