"Some of the most death-defying piano playing since Art Tatum."
New York Times

One of the most important figures to emerge from Afro-Cuban jazz in the '90s, Gonzalo Rubalcaba is an extraordinarily versatile pianist able to blend disparate strands of Cuban and American jazz tradition into a fresh, modern whole. Rubalcaba demonstrates why Cuban music has become so popular around the world. His lush tropical passion, rhythmic energy and sheer muscle on the piano have all combined to make him a truly unique artist. Rubalcaba returns to Yoshi's Oakland & San Francisco to perform mostly original music that encompasses his synthesis of Latin, Afro-Cuban and jazz musical styles. Rubalcaba displays a blend of technical virtuosity with contemplative interpretations of traditional Cuban themes and imaginative originals.
