Roberto Fonseca

The Cuban pianist makes his Hall debut showcasing his critically acclaimed album, La Gran Diversión, along with songs spanning his legendary career.

La Gran Diversión is a tribute to Cuban music’s golden era, inspired by the illustrious 1930's Parisian cabaret, Cabane Cubaine and wild nights in La Havana. Whether or not you are familiar with the moves and steps of the Mambo, Rumba or Bolero, the urge to sway to the melodies played by an artist considered to have breathed a new life into Cuban music, will be irresistible.
Roberto Fonseca first appeared on stage at the age of 15 during the La Havana Jazz Festival. He went on to record his first solo album Tiene que ver, before becoming the junior virtuoso of the Buena Vista Social Club. This new fire set him on course to travel the world, working alongside legends such as Ibrahim Ferrer and Omara Portuondo.

Pour les fans de Jazz et Latino.
