Cuban pianist Alfredo Rodriguez and percussionist Pedrito Martinez leave audiences mesmerized by their fearless and virtuosic playing. Rodriguez trained in Havana’s rigorous classical conservatories. His artistry is as much shaped by Bach and Stravinsky as it is by Afro-Cuban rhythms and jazz. Martinez’s musical training came directly from the streets of Old Havana. The unique backgrounds of these Grammy nominees create an extraordinary synergy.
Together these two master musicians take listeners on a unique and exciting journey from Cuban classics to collaborative original compositions and unexpected favorites.
“The mind-melding between the two is sublime…it’s a joy to hear their visions combine”
