Hard on the heels of releasing its fourth album, Sonidos Gold, the funkified Latin orchestra Grupo Fantasma performs tonight, June 25, at 7:30 p.m. in the Calderwood Courtyard of Boston’s Museum of Fine Arts. The Austin-based band is known for mixing a variety of Latin, jazz, and funk styles in high-energy, hip-shaking live performances. The group is the latest headliner to take the stage as part of the MFA’s summer Concerts in the Courtyard, held every Wednesday through August 20.

Tickets, which are $20 for MFA members, seniors, and students and $25 for nonmembers, can be purchased online.

Reservations for tables at the courtyard level, which seat four and do not include wait service, are an additional $30 per table. To reserve a table, call the Remis Box Office at 617-369-3306. Terrace-level seating at Bravo Restaurant is available on the day of the concert for $50, which includes concert admission and a meal voucher. Terrace-level seating is not available for concerts moved indoors because of rain.
