A Night in Havana
$9.00 Adults; $7.00 Seniors & Students
In the 1940s, Dizzy Gillespie was one of the first American jazz musicians to incorporate the electrifying sound of Afro-Cuban rhythms into a big-band setting. Forty years later, the legendary jazz trumpeter was invited to Cuba to headline the Fifth International Jazz Festival in Havana. A Night in Havana documents Dizzy’s journey, a spiritual homecoming for the musical genius.
