ABOUT ALDO LÓPEZ-GAVILÁN

“Dazzling technique and rhythmic fire. . . . ”—The Seattle Times

“A formidable virtuoso. . . .”—The Times (London)

Cuban pianist and composer Aldo López-Gavilán is a genius with exceedingly rare talent and international success in both the classical and jazz worlds as a recitalist, concerto soloist, composer, and performer of his own electrifying jazz. Legendary Cuban pianist Chucho Valdés says that Aldo is “simply a genius, a star.” First coming to the attention of the SJW community in Los Hermanos / The Brothers, a film documenting his musical reunion with his brother, Ilmar, a virtuoso violinist, Aldo has an unbridled approach to composition and improvisation, and a seemingly limitless technique at his command. Accompanied by a band of brilliant SJW artists in this intimate setting, Aldo will showcase his awe-inspiring and achingly beautiful compositions which defy categorization, but which express the totality of his multi-cultural experience and musical vision.
