Onstage Sessions Jazz Club

Havana-born and raised, Cuban pianist Harold López-Nussa won first prize at the jazz solo piano competition at the Montreux Jazz Festival in 2005 when he was just 21. He drew raves when he opened for Juan de Marco’s Afro-Cuban All Stars at The Soraya in 2018, and now he returns to headline with his own trio which he calls “the greatest musicians of my generation in Cuba.” Their sound reflects the full range and richness of Cuban music, an exciting combination of classical, folkloric and popular elements interpreted through López-Nussa’s fearlessly inventive improvisation. It’s an absolute joy to experience live, especially when you’re sitting onstage right next to them.
