Four decades ago, Chucho Valdés revolutionized Cuba’s musical landscape at the head of his jazz outfit Irakere, whose work sounds strikingly modern to this day. At age 74, the Cuban pianist is off on a new adventure with a fresh line-up of young musicians quite innocent of Irakere’s early triumphs. Re-capturing the volcanic energy and force of his iconic hits, here he is [live in concert] making history once more.
Il y a quarante ans, Chucho Valdés révolutionnait le paysage avec son groupe Irakere et ses sonorités incroyablement modernes. À 74 ans, le pianiste reprend l'aventure avec son groupe de jeunes musiciens qui n'étaient pas nés quand Irakere triomphait. La force de cette musique ressurgit, magique et volcanique, comme un héritage ancien qui serait réinventé pour célébrer la magie de la musique cubaine.
