The tour is set to open at St David’s Hall in Cardiff on the 28th February 2024.
Hailing all the way from Cuba, the award-winning international hit music & dance show Pasión de Buena Vista, featuring a 17 piece ensemble of musicians, singers and dancers will embark on a UK tour in 2024.
The 12 piece The Buena Vista Band’ combine with Cuban dance troupe ‘El Grupo de Bailar’ to take audiences on a journey through the streets and night clubs of Havana to an era of real Cuban musical life via an array of the island’s most iconic dances, including the irresistible Salsa, Mambo, Cha-cha-cha, Danzón and Bolero.
Pasión de Buena Vista will merge Cuba’s old traditions with the island’s new musical influences to bring to life the atmosphere of a sultry Havana Jazz club; and the energy, exuberance of a legendary Havana Cabaret show via the traditional Cuban traditional street festival party; all reflecting the rich culture of Cuba.
The show will be fronted by Musical Director and lead vocalist Pelayo Oxamendi. A music graduate of the University of Havana, Pelayo worked with the legends Compay Segundo, Ibrahim Ferrer, Omara Portuondo, Ruben Gonzalez and Pio Leyva from the iconic Buena Vista Social Club.
