"Herrera’s deep Latin jazz roots are the foundation for a style that brings creative illumination to everything she sings ... She’s one of a kind.” The International Review of Music
Mexican singer Magos Herrera will hold a jazz concert in support of UN Women’s HeForShe Initiative at Hong Kong City Hall on November 20, 2016 (Sunday).

Magos is regarded as one of the most expressive, beautiful voices and most active vocalists in the contemporary Latin American jazz scene. She is best known for her eloquent vocal improvisation and her singular bold style, which embraces elements of contemporary jazz with Latin American melodies and rhythms.
She is also a spokesperson for UN Women Mexico. All proceeds from the concert will be used to support gender equality research led by the University of Hong Kong.
Join her for a concert where she aims to open a “conversation between a man and a woman to change paradigms, through a beautiful Latin American repertoire of classics and originals.”
