Synopsis

Album Description
Pianist Chucho Valdes is revered as a national treasure in Cuba-the Duke Ellington of his country. He receives the admiration and thanks of his people in a way that the Duke never did in his lifetime. When you hear current Cuban jazz or popular music, whether Gonzalo Rubalcaba, NG La Banda or Charanga Habanera, you hear the influence of Chucho Valdes and Irakere.
