Orquesta Buena Vista Social Club®
“Adiós Tour” featuring Omara Portuondo, Guajiro Mirabal, Barbarito Torres y Jesús “Aguaje” Ramos regresa a la Ciudad de México
Preventa Banamex 15 y 16 de Julio
Para todos los amantes a los excelsos ritmos cubanos, una de las orquestas más respetadas y queridas por muchos, Orquesta Buena Vista Social Club®, regresará a nuestro país, de la mano de su “Adiós Tour”, para poner el sabor, baile y candela, en las instalaciones del Auditorio Nacional, lugar que los vio en vivo y a todo color en el mes de febrero, y que ahora, se engalanará de nueva cuenta, con la presencia de estos talentosos músicos, patrimonios de la historia universal de la música. La fecha para esta gran bohemia sonora será el próximo domingo 15 de noviembre. La preventa Banamex se realizará los días 15 y 16 de julio.
Para esta gran gala, la Orquesta Buena Vista Social Club® estará bajo la dirección musical de Jesús “Aguaje” Ramos, líder de la banda y trombonista. Además de que contará con las leyendas vivientes como la diva del son, Omara Portuondo (voz), el maestro Guajiro Mirabal (trompeta) y el virtuoso Barbarito Torres (laúd).
Ellos estarán acompañados en el escenario de algunos de los músicos que a lo largo de los años se han unido al proyecto como el veterano maestro del tres Papi Oviedo, el excelso pianista Rolando Luna, así como una excelente sección rítmica compuesta por Pedro Pablo (contrabajo), Andrés Coayo (congas), Filiberto Sánchez (timbales) y Alberto “La Noche” (bongos) y también estarán arropados con un experimentado conjunto de trompetas de tres hombres liderados por la alta nota especialista de Luis Allemany y el célebre sonero Carlos Calunga e Idania Valdéz.
El “Adiós Tour” es una síntesis de más de mil conciertos que han involucrado a más de 40 músicos en los últimos 16 años. Durante este tiempo, el grupo se ha convertido en una dinámica y multi-generacional big band, donde los veteranos y los más jóvenes se han unido para celebrar con gran elegancia la tradición cubana.
“Queremos que nuestra música perdure en el tiempo y que sigamos encantando al mundo; esto es lo que hemos conseguido con nuestros conciertos. Ha sido una parte increíble de mi vida y de mi carrera”, comentó Omara Portuondo.
Los shows de la Orquesta Buena Vista Social Club® siempre se han caracterizado por contar con un gran abanico de géneros y ritmos como el son, guajiras, danzones, boleros, cha-cha-cha y rumbas. Además de tocar gran parte de sus clásicos, también el público tendrá la oportunidad de escuchar algunos temas inéditos así como versiones de populares canciones cubanas. Sin duda, el show será un fiel reflejo del pasado y presente de este legendario combo.
Cabe mencionar que esta agrupación surgió tras el aclamado proyecto de 1997, Buena Vista Social Club, ganador de un Grammy, y que hoy en día, su formación sigue contando con varios de los músicos originales que figuraron en la histórica grabación y película, que fue dirigida por Win Wenders.
Esto sólo fue el punto de partida para un extraordinario y maravilloso viaje, que a lo largo de los años, se han editado exitosos álbumes, obteniendo varios premios Grammy, y realizado infinidad de conciertos, en donde muchos casos se contó con la participación de Ibrahim Ferrer, Rubén González, Cachaíto López, Manuel Galbán, Roberto Fonseca, entre otros.
A very Enjoyable experience! Excellent show that provided the uninitiated a window into a different type of Latin music. Two hour show worth every minute. I would love to see them again in the future. 😊
High energy show loaded with talent. Hit the mark with familiar and new-to-me songs. The lead singers and musicians me are terrific, especially the female vocalist. Beseme Mucho was the best version I’ve ever heard. She is spectacular!
Really talented group of latin musicians! A few of the old band are still there. And the band leader has his daughter playing trumbone! The new female vocale lead may be the best salsa/latin singer I have ever heard - crazy great vocals.
Th show was very lively, enjoyable and energetic It got some people dancing in the middle of the show. and everyone was up, dancing and cheering throughout the last songs
Very entertaining concert. Outstanding musicians, great songs. Audience participation was a blast.
The Buena Vista Social Club was great, as usual. The opening act made me cringe. We couldn't figure out why this guy was there. I guess he had an ok singing voice, but his guitar playing was inferior, and the material he did had no place in that venue.
The band musicians and vocalists were all wonderful. I wish they performed in Manhattan more often!! Unfortunately, it was totally annoying that cell phone videos were permitted. Having someone wave a cellphone blocking your view is NOT fun and a total distraction, not to mention the light interference. The opening act was unnecessary and not at all compatible with Cuban music. The show should have started on time.
While this is not your father's Buena Vista Social Club, the arrangements and performances of the Buena Vista Social Orchestra bring back all the great songs and feelings that the BVSC did 25 years ago. Most of the great stars are gone, but the remaining original key members under the expert direction of Jesus Ramos makes this band very entertaining and enjoyable for an evening out. If you like Cuban jazz and great vocals, I highly recommend them.
Buena Vista Social Ochestra's performance was terrific. The members were true professionals, gave their all, roused audience participation, the audience was exuberant, nobody wanted it to end. Five-star performance!
Boy can these guys (and gals) rock the house and you feel like you are at a backyard party with friends, REALLY talented ones. Great show, great voices, super horns and just FUN! They couldn't clear the people out of the aisles dancing. It went on and on.
We enjoyed the evening but not our designated seats. We were sitting behind a big brick column and would have had to lean to the left to see the Orchestra. A nice bearded staff person came and noticed our bad sight line and took us and our 2 guests to seats on main floor left where we could see the Orchestra just fine. We were really thankful to that staff person. It was a great show. We have been huge fans of Buena Vista for years so this was very special to us. The new theater is very nice and spacious but the air conditioning was SO cold by our new seats, that we had to leave earlier than anticipated. If we go to another concert there in the future, we will wear parkas! Also, drinks were way overpriced.
Absolutely fabulous 130 minute performance by Cuba's Jesús "Aguaje"Ramos and the Buena Vista Orchestra playing a 19 song set allowed by an incredible 4 song encore on Thursday night in Minneapolis at the Uptown Theater.
Too bad it was such poor quality sound! I had an isle seat right across from the sound board. The guy there was busy looking at his phone most of the night. Disappointed.
The true Cuban big band sound with phenomenal talent... singers and musicians! I have loved their music through all the changes of band members over so many years. They performed some of their best songs creating a fun and energy charged audience singing and dancing!! An amazing evening and a rare chance to see them in person! Excellante!!
We were so looking forward to hearing the Buena Vista Social Club live. Unfortunately the sound was so bad and too loud with major distortion on the male vocal and trumpet mikes and generally that we left after several songs, driven out by the terrible sound and not being able to hear what they were saying or singing. Bad job by the Paramount on this concert!
We really enjoyed this show. Delicious salsa with some great boleros. Highly recommended for salsa lovers
I saw the Buena Vista Social Club in Havana Cuban in 2018. This performance at Wynn was even better as the audio and lighting only further enhanced the experience. Very talented group kept me entertained and engaged for 2 1/2 hours. Highly recommend if you love Cuban music or are open to a new musical experience.
Amazing! Saw the Buena Vista Social Club group while we were in Havana several years ago. Was delighted to experience them here in the US!
This group of musicians are fabulous to watch, listen to and just experience. I love these traditional Cuban sounds. The main vocalists were supreme. The rough textured voice of Aldo Isidro to the deep, rich, moving voice of Geidy translated each songs emotion. All the musicians were exemplary but Andy Abad Acostas' piano work was stellar. So glad we had the experience.
This orchestra is one of the absolute best. Beautiful music, great showmanship. People were moved by the music, some of us dancing in the aisles. Gracias por todo, Buena Vista Social Orchestra!
