On the night of March 19, the renowned Cuban pianist, Roberto Fonseca, made a unique presentation at the Great Hall Konzerthaus in Vienna.
This prestigious concert hall is still offered as a stage to expose the art and talent of Cuban musicians. Recall the presentation of the teacher Chucho Valdés and Gonzalo Rubalcaba, who offered a beautiful concert with four hands and two pianos, to present pieces of the Cuban and universal pianistic, on March 7.
Cuban culture and music continue to gain space and prestige in Vienna. Accompanied by a band of talented musicians, the young jazz player Roberto Fonseca, captivated the audience with the presentation of an exquisite repertoire that ran from the sounds of jazz, Cuban music and soul.
Roberto Fonseca, began composing at age 14, inspired by Afro-Cuban music, and at the early age of 15 he had his first public revelation with a presentation at the "International Jazz Festival of Havana".
The presentation was worthy of ovations from the public, who could not resist the contagious rhythm of the artist's piece, "Afro Mambo", to accompany the band with dances. Undoubtedly, Roberto Fonseca captivated the audience, and offered the opportunity to show how the genre of jazz on the island is interpreted and enriched.
