8:00PM KENNEDY CENTER CONCERT HALL

DC JAZZ FESTIVAL AND THE KENNEDY CENTER PRESENT
DC Jazz Festival and The Kennedy Center present Trance, the two-piano project featuring Gonzalo
Rubalcaba and Chucho Valdés. The concert combines leading living exponents of two generations in
the great Cuban piano tradition. Both hail originally from Havana, from musical families. Valdés with
six Grammy Awards in his career, while Rubalcaba has two Grammy Awards and two Latin
Grammys. Perhaps best known as the founder, leader and main composer and arranger of the ground-
breaking Afro-Cuban jazz rock band Irakere, Chucho Valdés has, since 2005, turned his attention to
his personal career, showcasing his talents as a pianist and leader of small ensembles. Gonzalo
Rubalcaba, who grew up listening to Valdés, burst on the world jazz scene in the 1980s with Grupo
Proyecto, his explosive Afro-Cuban jazz fusion ensemble. By the early ’90s, Rubalcaba’s dazzling
performances leading a trio featuring Charlie Haden and Paul Motian had established him as one of the
premier pianists in jazz. “I know Gonzalo’s father and I know Gonzalo since he was a child,” noted
Chucho. “This is a duo comprised of two pianists who have a historic relationship within the Cuban
piano tradition. That has made this project something very special. It emerged very naturally,
organically. The two pianos already sound like one.” Meanwhile, Gonzalo adds that “It would have
been easy to pick some standards and just go out and play, but we wanted to do something special.
We’re both writing music for two pianos and re imagining music ranging from the popular and
classical Cuban repertoire to Monk.” Ticketed Event. Website. Tickets
