# Bach Jumps to Cuba - Hot Jazz 2026-2027 (21:00) > Haifa Events **Date:** 2027-03-06, 21:00 **Venue:** בית אבא חושי **City:** Хайфа **Price:** from 175 ₪ **Category:** concert **Event language:** he ## Description Following its dazzling success at the Latin America Festival and by popular demand, the show featuring the three virtuosos returns! They will celebrate their shared love of jazz, Latin and South American rhythms, Bach, and Buena Vista folklore alongside sweeping Latin jazz. What happens when a virtuoso Cuban musician meets one of the pillars of classical music? In the show 'Bach Jumps to Cuba,' Cuban pianist Chuchito Valdés brings his Afro-Cuban world together with the work of Johann Sebastian Bach (and not only him) — creating a journey in which the boundaries between classical and Latin music disappear. Alongside him stands Omar Acosta, an award-winning Venezuelan flutist and composer, two-time Latin Grammy nominee, creator of the iconic piece 'Solo de Pajarillo,' and an international Yamaha artist. He is known as one of the leading Venezuelan flutists of his generation and served as flutist and musical director of the National Ballet of Spain. Together they weave a rich tapestry in which Bach's motifs are given new breath, blazing Cuban rhythms blend with ancient elegance, and improvisation becomes a tool for connecting worlds. Costel Nitescu has a unique voice that captivates the world, flawless technique and phenomenal virtuosity. If Brazil has four stars on its national football team's jersey, Romania has at least as many stars among its wonderful violinists. Costel Nitescu is part of the dream team of Romanian jazz violin. Already at age 16 he was first violin in the Bucharest National Radio Orchestra, and his classical training gave him a remarkable ability to blend into the different musical styles of Central Europe. In the early 2000s he moved to Paris, where his talent as an improviser quickly placed him at the top of Gypsy jazz. Chuchito Valdés is a third-generation member of the legendary Valdés dynasty, a Latin Grammy nominee, former leader of Irakere, and a piano master who blends Afro-Cuban jazz, Caribbean music and swing into an electrifying show that lights up the stage with swing, groove and irresistible energy. This is an evening in which Bach goes on a tropical journey — full of humor, freedom and creativity — like nothing you've ever heard before! Featuring: Chuchito Valdés – piano (Cuba); Costel Nitescu – violin (France); Omar Acosta – flute (Venezuela). **Tickets:** https://haifaevents.kassa.co.il/announce/buy/210821 **Source:** bravo **Image:** https://pub-0a891185c33b4c5a8db7ede117f7c8e7.r2.dev/haifa-events/bravo/6276b4cbb12de744966ca1bbe1294bfe.jpg --- **Canonical event page:** https://www.haifa.events/en/event/bakh-otpravlyaetsya-na-kubu-seriya-goryachiy-dzhaz-2026-2027-mar-06/ **Other languages:** https://www.haifa.events/he/event/bakh-otpravlyaetsya-na-kubu-seriya-goryachiy-dzhaz-2026-2027-mar-06/, https://www.haifa.events/ru/event/bakh-otpravlyaetsya-na-kubu-seriya-goryachiy-dzhaz-2026-2027-mar-06/ Haifa Events is an aggregator.
