REMINDER: Decades back, Chucho Valdes’ group Irakere was reaching young crowds… and giving them something that got them dancing.  Bacalao con Pan ( a hit in 1974 and again in 1982 ) was the big song of those years…

Now he’s realized his personal goal of being a known jazz master on the international scene… as a writer, virtuoso, and improvisor, as well as an ambassador of Cuban music.

Toronto and Montreal will both see Chucho up close this summer.  In Toronto, it’s the EnWave theatre at Harbourfront, July 1.  TWO SHOWS: 7 PM, 9:30 PM

Montreal Jazz Festival also features Chucho, at Théâtre Maisonneuve -  Thursday, July 02, 2009 at 9:30 PM
