Cuba: The Conversation Continues
Recorded in Havana 24 hours after President Obama announced his plan to normalize relations between the U.S. and Cuba, Arturo O'Farrill & the Afro Latin Jazz Orchestra's Cuba: The Conversation Continues is a powerful symbol of cultural diplomacy, a juxtaposition of music and current events. A follow up to the GRAMMY-winning "The Offense of the Drum," the new album builds upon the conversation started by Dizzy Gillespie and Cuban percussionist Chano Pozo - a musical dialogue that bridged the gap between jazz and Afro-Cuban music. O'Farrill brings top composers from both the U.S. and Cuba to create a dazzling musical tapestry, successfully fulfilling Dizzy's dream of creating 'universal music'.
