Buena Vista All-Stars - One Night in Havana

Can’t step back into the vibrant club nights of 40s and 50s Cuba? Let the unforgettable experience come to you as the second edition of Sounds of Jazz brings the torchbearers of Havana’s golden age to light up The Grand Theatre stage! No one channels the spirit of Cuban music quite like the Buena Vista All Stars – a living, breathing legacy of that remarkable period, now making their much-anticipated debut in India.

Presenting a powerful fusion of son, salsa, rumba, and Afro-Cuban jazz, ‘One Night in Havana – Una Noche en La Habana’ is the ultimate tribute to the soul-stirring rhythms that shaped a nation and moved the world. The performance shines a spotlight on Cuba’s rich musical history with founding members Demetrio Muñiz (Direction), Barbarito Torres (Laud), and Manuel Machado (Trumpet) at its heart, joined by all-star Cuban musicians – Angel Aguiar (Vocals), Amanda Gaviria (Vocals), Sergio Fernández (Piano), Ramon “El León” Gonzalez Orta (Percussion), Julián Garvayo (Trombone), Geandelaxis “Mandela” Bell (Trombone), Pedro Porro Oduardo (Timba), Rainer Perez Rodriguez (Bass), and Juan Luis De La Torre (Backup Trumpet). Together, they breathe new life into classic anthems like Chan Chan and Dos Gardenias alongside fresh tracks from their critically acclaimed 2024 album.

At the helm is Muñiz, a musical titan and visionary whose career spans over five decades, including pivotal collaborations with global superstars such as U2, Coldplay, and Sting. Under his masterful direction, the extraordinary group blends tradition and innovation, preserving Cuba’s treasured music while infusing it with bold, contemporary energy.
