Legendary
Cuban jazz pianist Chucho Valdés and his band, the Afro-Cuban
Messengers, perform a sublime evening of Latin jazz in their first
appearance at the Center. Hailed as “the dean of Latin jazz” and “one of
the world’s great virtuosic pianists” by The New York Times,
this multi-Grammy Award winner has defined his genre and influenced
countless musicians worldwide. “Whether Chucho Valdés is performing a
gentle ballad or a rousing foot-stomper, his joy is in playing and his
love of the music always shines through.” (All About Jazz) This
supremely talented musician, composer and arranger is considered one of
Cuba’s greatest jazz artists. His long and illustrious career includes
more than 80 recordings, performing with such jazz masters as Herbie
Hancock, Dizzy Gillespie, and Chick Corea. He is the winner of five
Grammy Awards and three Latin Grammy Awards.  This is an unforgettable
treat for jazz lovers.
