Chucho Valdés offers live concert through Facebook

March 18, 2020

A mini-concert by Cuban pianist with a duration of almost 20 minutes consisted of more than 2 thousand live views. It took place at 3pm Miami and Cuba time and 8pm Spanish time.

Valdés clarified that he had never done a mini-recital through Facebook, and took the opportunity to announce that the next one will be this Thursday, March 19, Father's Day in Spain and St. Joseph's Day.

In recent days, several musicians, faced with inevitable tour and concert cancellations, have decided to do live presentations through social networks.

From his studio, Chucho explained that they had to cancel the concerts of his tour due to the coronavirus pandemic and that this mini-concert appealed to love and hope.

The piece is based on the melody of the Concierto de Aranjuez. The performance can be seen at https://www.facebook.com/valdes.chucho/videos/510750139613836/
