“A seriously refreshing listen and a complete triumph. Hats off to Ana Carla Maza.” Songlines magazine loved “Bahía”, the latest album from the Havana-born virtuoso cellist, vocalist and composer, who is living in Spain. Her music draws on Cuban son, samba, bossa nova, tango, jazz and chanson and, as she says, also on “my travels, the stories and people I have met along the way”. She is a compelling live performer and audiences always join in the singing and can sense the unmistakable pure passion of “A tomar cafe” – a song which Maza dedicates to Miriam Valdés. She is the sister of the great Chucho Valdés who taught her the piano when she was just five years old before she took up the cello at the age of eight.
