Gonzalo Rubalcaba & Richard Galliano
This outstanding collaborative duo embodies the international flavour of jazz in the early 21st century. The New York Times calls Cuban-raised, American-based pianist Gonzalo Rubalcaba “one of the greatest musicians in jazz.” A multiple Grammy award winner, his active repertoire continues to expand beyond mainstream, bop, Afro-Cuban and other forms of jazz into the worlds of traditional Cuban and Mexican ballads, boleros and Cuban classical works. In acclaimed Frenchman Richard Galliano’s hands the accordion swings as hard as any saxophone. He’s raised the instrument’s stature while mixing various musical styles with his melodic jazz. Two master musicians—one extraordinary concert.
