In describing the immensely gifted Cuban-born, Swiss-based vocalist and violinist Yilian Cañizares, piano luminary Chucho Valdés says it best: “Yilian is one of the most incredible talents of the new generation of Cuban musicians. She is a virtuoso, she is expressive, spontaneous and with a grace that makes her the favorite of all of us.” Cañizares performs music from her new album Vitamina Y.
