Culture

Running through Tuesday, January 12, recording artist Aliosky Garcia’s exhibit “Peregrino de la noche” will be on display throughout the day at the Simon Bolivar House. In the exhibit, Aliosky Garcia uses black and white xylography to recreate his obsession with the human body —nude or dressed— which is the display’s center of gravity.

On Monday, January 11, from 10:00 p.m. to 2:00 a.m. at the La Zorra y el Cuervo jazz club (155 Calle 23 and O, Vedado), the group Aire de Concierto will be presented.

January 9 – On Sunday, January 10, jazz artist Abel Calderón and his trio will play at the La Zorra y el Cuervo (No. 155 Calle 23, in the Vedado district), from 10:00 p.m. to 2:00 a.m.

On Sunday, January 10, the First Concert of Symphonic Jazz will be presented by a trio and a symphonic orchestra. It is set to take place at the Amadeo Roldan Theater-Auditorium (Calzada and D, Vedado) at 5:00 p.m.

On Sunday, January 10, at 11 p.m., DJ Iván Lejardi, DJ Obi and DJ Ra will be presented in the gardens of the Tropical (located at 41st and 46th, in the Playa district).

In this musical setting, they always try to find a perfect balance between the different genres of music in each specific moment of their performances. Instead of locking themselves into a particular style, each one of these DJs sets out on a musical expedition. The styles they use most are house, trance, and minimal-house.

Street music will be presented until Monday, January 18, starting from 11:00 a.m., parading from Calle Obispo to the Plaza de Armas. The artistic groups Giganteria Havana, as well as Giganteria d´ambular and other troupes representing the different regions of Spain, will demonstrate the varieties of performance and music of Cuba and Spain.
