Legendary Cuban pianist and composer Chucho Valdés presents La Creación (The Creation), for big band, Afro-Cuban percussion and vocals. The four-movement suite explores the story of creation according to the Afro-Cuban Santería religion and includes elements of African music, the blues and what Valdés describes as “an atmosphere in the style of Miles Davis’ Bitches Brew.”
