CHUCHO VALDÉS QUINTET

Friday, November 16, 2012; 8:00 PM
Cullen Theater, Wortham Theater Center
Hailed as “the dean of Latin jazz” and “one of the world’s great virtuosic pianists” by The New York Times, Chucho Valdés won the 2011 Grammy Award for Best Latin Jazz Album.
“Whether Chucho Valdés is performing a gentle ballad or a rousing foot-stomper, his joy in playing and his love of the music always shines through. He can tickle the ivories with the soft grace of Bill Evans and dazzle with the thunderous dexterity of Art Tatum or Oscar Peterson.”
