Arcadi Volodos auf dem Klavierfestival Ruhr 2020

feat. Grégoire Maret (Harmonica)

Luques Curtis (Bass)
Ruy Adrian López-Nussa (Drums)

His playing reflects the entire spectrum of Cuban styles, enriched with jazzy improvisation and interaction.

He came to jazz through Herbie Hancock’s album “The New Standard” but has always been active in the classical terrain as well. In 2005, he won the solo piano competition at the Montreux Jazz Festival, and two years later, he formed a trio with his brother Ruy Adrián on drums. He collaborated with renowned jazz musicians but also accompanied singer Omara Portuondo (Buena Vista Social Club) for three years. In 2019, he made his first appearance at the Piano Festival Ruhr.

In cooperation with the Zollverein Foundation

Harold López-Nussa

Cuban-born pianist and composer Harold López-Nussa begins an exciting new chapter of his fascinating career with his Blue Note debut Timba a la Americana, a vibrant album teeming with joy and pathos that was inspired by the pianist’s recent decision to leave his Cuban homeland and begin a new life in France. Produced by Snarky Puppy bandleader Michael League, Timba a la Americana unveils a brand-new sound across 10 dynamic original compositions performed by a tight-knit band featuring harmonica virtuoso Grégoire Maret, Luques Curtis on bass, Bárbaro “Machito” Crespo on congas, and Harold’s brother Ruy Adrián López-Nussa on drums.
