Recording Release
Acclaimed Havana-born, New York-based pianist, composer, bandleader and educator, Dayramir González celebrates his 25th year as a professional musician, linking Cuba to Africa, Europe and the Americas with the release of his latest album V.I.D.A. This project shows a dynamic range of sounds with its emphasis on Afro-Cuban Jazz, with progressive rock and traditional Cuban.
“His refined yet bravado-infused pianism naturally extends the brilliant legacy of Cuban jazz pianists from Bebo Valdes to Chucho Valdes to Gonzalo Rubalcaba.” -LA Weekly
“Promising newcomer Dayramir Gonzalez can be added to the pantheon of distinctive Cuban Jazz Voices. This Afro- Cuban pianist, composer, and arranger is setting the Latin jazz world on fire in America.”
-Carnegie Hall
