In an inimitable way, the international ensemble blends the melancholy of the Cape Verdean Islands with a generous portion of Cuban rumba, salsa and adventurous jazz. The result: CaboCubaJazz Quinteto. Both the listener and the dancer are taken on a journey where desire, passion, subtlety and musical fire alternate. CaboCubaJazz has performed in Cuba, Cape Verde, Canada, Thailand, Germany, Finland, Austria, Belgium, Bahrain, Malaysia, Romenia, Luxembourg, Norway and in The Netherlands. Performance highlights include the Havana Jazz Festival, Kriol Jazz, and North Sea Jazz Festival. CaboCubaJazz’ debut album Rikeza y Valor was awarded best World Music album by Dutch journalists, selected twice for a Grammy award and was nominated at the Cabo Verde Music Awards. The band’s most recent album is Corason Africano, and they are expected to release another in 2026!
