Beyond its spectacular collection of contemporary figurative painting, the  MEAM programs a large number of activities and initiatives. 
We invite the public to immerse themselves in a unique sound journey, where, as usual at the MEAM, music intertwines with art and history.

Every two Sundays, from April to June, at 6:00 pm, the museum will open its doors to offer a complete cultural experience, where the public can enjoy an exclusive concert and explore our exhibitions. This initiative seeks to bring live music to all audiences, promoting artistic diversity in a unique environment.

This cycle is conceived as a journey through different musical traditions, representing the sounds that have defined cultures and eras. Each concert will be a window to a different sound universe, connecting the music with the historical and artistic context of the museum. The proposal is to celebrate the richness of musical styles and their ability to evoke emotions and stories from different times and places.

On this occasion we will have the artists:  

• Dayramir González - piano solo
   

STYLE: AFRO CUBAN JAZZ

DESCRIPTION: 

T.I.D.L. Truth, Independence, Diversity and Love.

“The tracks on this album feature the combination of dance rhythms and sound designs within my compositions, with genres that lend themselves to the Afro Cuban-World-Jazz sound. It is an extension of the work that differentiates this project from the more acoustic sonority of my previous album, The Grand Concourse.

The thematic and self-reflective melodies of V.I.D.A. evolved into compositions, arrangements, and orchestrations that celebrate personal triumph over life’s obstacles and hardships with an emphasis and refocus on hope, joy, beauty, and self-expression.

My hope is that the music captures the essence of the title

Dayramir began his professional career as a pianist and composer at the age of 16 with former Irakere member Oscar Valdés’ Afro-Cuban jazz ensemble Diákara. He received top awards at Havana’s JoJazz festival in 2004 and 2005 and three Cubadisco awards for his 2007 debut album “Dayramir & Habana enTRANCé” before entering Berklee College of Music as the first Cuban to receive its “Presidential Scholarship.”

Since completing his education, he has performed in 15,000-capacity stadiums with legends Chucho and Bebo Valdés and headlined Carnegie Hall, as a representative of the young generation of Afro-Cuban jazz. In recent years, with multiple recorded albums in his portfolio, Dayramir has developed an international following in clubs, concert halls and festival appearances throughout North and South America, as well as Europe. An American citizen, Dayramir still performs annually in Cuba at the legendary Jazz Plaza Festival in Havana, while staying close to his cultural and creative roots.
