For more than 50 years, the National Symphony Orchestra of Cuba has been instrumental in introducing Cuban and Latin American music to the international classical music community.

We're thrilled to welcome the National Symphony Orchestra of Cuba to Stephens during their first, historic 21-city tour of the United States. Music Director Enrique Perez Mesa will share the podium with guest composer/conductor Guido Lopez-Gavilan in an evening of music by Gershwin, Schubert and Cuba's own Ernesto Lecuona. Pianist Ignacio "Nachito" Herrera joins the orchestra for Gershwin's classic Rhapsody in Blue.
