The Harold López-Nussa Trio performs at UH Hilo PAC Oct. 19

Cuban musician and jazz pianist Harold López-Nussa is joined by Ruy López-Nussa on drums and percussion and bassist Gaston Joya when the Harold Lopez-Nussa Trio performs at the University of Hawaiʻi at Hilo Performing Arts Center on Friday, October 19 at 7:30 pm.

“These are my closest friends and two of the greatest musicians of my generation in Cuba. We’ve played a lot together through the years, but this is the first time that we’ve toured and recorded as a working trio,” López-Nussa said. “When we play together, something special always happens and I feel comfortable and free because they know how my music works and where I will go even before I get there.”
