     Hailed as "the dean of Latin jazz" and "one of the world’s great virtuosic pianists" by The New York Times, multi-Grammy Award winner Chucho Valdés brings an all-new band to deliver his distinct Afro-Cuban jazz sound on the Bass Concert Hall stage.

    Winner of five Grammy Awards and three Latin Grammy Awards, Cuban born Dionisio Jesús “Chucho” Valdés Rodríguez has performed all over the world in such prestigious venues as Carnegie Hall, the Kennedy Centre and the Hollywood Bowl, and has shared the stage with such musical luminaries as Herbie Hancock, Chick Corea, Brandford and Wynton Marsalis, Carlos Santana, Grover Washington Jr., Dizzy Gillespie, Taj Mahal, and Tito Puente to name but a few.
