  • Omara Portuondo (from Buena Vista Social Club)

    Omara Portuondo (from Buena Vista Social Club)

    The grande dame of Cuban music, Portuondo was born in 1930 to a mixed-race couple; at that time, they had to keep their marriage a secret. Omara won her first Latin Grammy Award for Best Contemporary Tropical Album along with a Latin Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award in 2009 – at almost 80 years old!

    With the album Vida (“Life”), Omara fulfills the request her mother made to her before she died: to bring music to the world. It is a tribute to her existence, and, in part, she intends to return the affection that her fans have for her wherever she goes. Don’t miss this show by one of Cuba’s most beloved musical ambassadors!
