THE DUO RICHARD BONA & ALFREDO RODRIGUEZ BACK IN SWITZERLAND

In this context where living without music is not an option, MKC EVENTS is pleased to announce the return to Switzerland of Duo Richard Bona & Alfredo Rodriguez for an exceptional concert in Lausanne in the Renens concert hall.

Two jazz greats reunited on stage again on Saturday 23 October 2021! Alfredo Rodríguez and Richard Bona discovered their mutual love for Afro-Cuban music when they performed two songs together for Rodríguez’s album “Tocoroco” (2016), produced by Quincy Jones. Both are masters of their instrument: Richard Bona, whose roots are in Cameroon, is very versatile and is characterized both as bassist and singer by his precise but very light and song-like playing. Cuban pianist Rodríguez is one of the most impressive representatives of New Cuban Jazz, totally in the sense of pioneers like Gonzalo Rubalcaba, and is artistic director of Global Gumbo Projects, founded by Quincy Jones.
