Mi esposa y yo amamos a Pink Martini, que en realidad es una peque\u00f1a orquesta, en lugar de una banda. Ninguna palabra puede describir mejor por qu\u00e9 los amamos que las del director de orquesta y pianista del grupo, Thomas Lauderdale:<\/p>

"Pink Martini es una divertida aventura musical alrededor del mundo... si las Naciones Unidas tuvieran una banda local en 1962, con suerte ser\u00edamos esa banda".<\/p>

\u201cSomos en gran medida una banda estadounidense, pero pasamos mucho tiempo en el extranjero y, por lo tanto, tenemos la incre\u00edble oportunidad diplom\u00e1tica de representar a un Estados Unidos m\u00e1s amplio e inclusivo\u2026 el Estados Unidos que sigue siendo el pa\u00eds con la poblaci\u00f3n m\u00e1s heterog\u00e9nea del mundo\u2026 compuesto por personas de todos los pa\u00edses, de todos los idiomas, de todas las religiones. Excepto los nativos americanos, todos somos inmigrantes de todos los pa\u00edses, de todos los idiomas, de todas las religiones\u201d.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
