Grand Performances honors the legendary Cuban musician Israel "Cachao" López. Come dressed in tropical finery, and sway to music from the man credited for inventing the mambo by introducing African rhythms to Cuban’s Danzon in the late 1930s. The all-star band features an unmatched ensemble of Latin musicians, most of whom recorded and played with Cachao throughout his career: Danilo Lozano, Rene Camacho, Alberto Salas, Richie Marquez, Papo Rodriguez, Oréstes Vilató, Justo Almario, Luis Eric González, Alfredo "Chocolate" Armenteros, Federico Britos, and Lázaro Galarrága. Bring a mojito, and we swear you’ll feel the tropical breeze!
