Chucho Valdés: Jazz Batá Dec 6, 2019 (4 years ago) Berklee Performance Center Boston, Massachusetts, United States
Jazz Batá, a new project of pianist, composer, and arranger Chucho Valdés(Opens in a new window), features Yelsy Heredia on acoustic bass and Dreiser Durruthy Bombalé on percussion and voice.
In 1972, one year before he founded the transcendent Afro-Cuban jazz rock ensemble Irakere, Valdés experimented with a trio that, although largely ignored at the time, proved crucial for his musical development. The trio is composed of piano, acoustic bass, and batá, the hourglass-shaped drum essential in the ritual music of Yoruba religion best known as Santeria.
