David Buchbinder’s Odessa/Havana Jewish Klezmer MEETS CUBAN JAZZ

When

  • April 1, 2017

Award-winning trumpeter and composer David Buchbinder brings together top jazz and world musicians to present an exhilarating evening of musical discovery fusing Jewish and Cuban music. With a common ancestry in medieval Andalusia and sharing Arabic, Roma (Gypsy), Sephardic and North African forbearers, Jewish and Cuban music traditions also share haunting minor modalities, improvisatory flourishes, a strong rhythmic drive, and deeply spiritual underpinnings.
