With some 29 GRAMMY and Latin GRAMMY a wards between them\, Chucho Valdés and Paquito D’Rivera are each a lege nd in their own right. It’s easy to forget their humble beginnings in 19 60s Havana\, when none other than Dizzy Gillespie brought international at tention to their innovative big band Irakere\, where both were founding me mbers. After that\, the rest is history. Maintaining a 60-year friendship but pulled in different directions and\, at times\, different countries by fabled careers\, the two reunited for the 2022 album I Miss You Too and launched their once-in-a-lifetime tour with the Chucho Valdés &\; Paq uito D’Rivera Reunion Sextet. Don’t miss out on this concert event tha t will be one for the history books.  \;\n\nCONTACT: performingarts@un ion.wisc.edu\n\nURL: https://union.wisc.edu/events-and-activities/event-ca lendar/event/theater-chucho-valdes-and-paquito-drivera LOCATION:Shannon Hall\, Memorial Union SUMMARY:Chucho Valdés & Paquito D’Rivera Reunion Sextet URL;VALUE=URI:https://union.wisc.edu/events-and-activities/event-calendar/e vent/theater-chucho-valdes-and-paquito-drivera END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
