Cuban musician Carlos Varela bringing a taste of Cuba to Weill Hall
When Cuban singer, songwriter and guitarist Carlos Varela performs July 25 at Green Music Center’s Weill Hall, the audience can expect not only a compelling performance, but an encounter with Cuban culture not often experienced in this country.
An important figure in Cuba’s revolutionary “Nueva Trova” political and musical movement since the 1980s, Varela also has exerted his influence in the United States, with some of his songs appearing on movie soundtracks and others recorded by U.S. stars.
More than a performer, Varela, 52, acts as an ambassador for his country’s culture. When President Obama announced Dec. 17 that the United States would reopen relations with Cuba, severed more than half a century ago, it was an important moment for Varela and his efforts.
The day before his Rohnert Park appearance, Varela will attend the Downtown Film Festival Los Angeles for a showing of his screen biography, “The Poet of Havana,” which features two of his concerts filmed in 2014 at the National Theater of Havana. Included in the 90-minute production are interviews with musicians, actors and writers such as Jackson Browne and Benicio Del Toro.
The Weill Hall concert is being organized by Californians Building Brid
