Two jazz greats, united on the Moods stage! Alfredo Rodríguez and Richard Bona discovered their common love of Afro-Cuban music when they together played two songs for Rodríguez‘ album «Tocoroco» (2016), which was produced by Quincy Jones. Both are masters of their instrument: Richard Bona, whose roots lie in Cameroon, is highly multi-faceted and is characterised both as bassist and singer by his precise yet very light and song-like playing. The Cuban pianist Rodríguez is one of the most impressive exponents of New Cuban Jazz, totally in the sense of pionners such as Gonzalo Rubalcaba, and is Artistic Director of Global Gumbo Projects, founded by Quincy Jones. We can look forward to their joint work!
