The Buena Vista Orchestra
Oct 19, 2025
Starting: 7:30 PM
Celebrated Cuban trombonist Jesus "Aguaje" Ramos leads a musical journey through the golden age of son cubano and beyond. The Buena Vista Orchestra performs at the Miami Beach Bandshell on Sunday, October 19, presented by LPR x Murmrr.
As the original orchestra leader, composer and trombonist of the Buena Vista Social Club, Ramos brings unparalleled authenticity to this ensemble that carries forward the legacy of Cuba's most internationally celebrated musical collective. His career includes performances with elite ensembles including Estrellas de Areito and Afro-Cuban Allstars, as well as featured roles in the critically acclaimed 1999 documentary Buena Vista Social Club.
The performance features key players from throughout the history of the Buena Vista Social Club, presenting both classics and lesser-known gems from their extensive repertoire. Many compositions in the program were written by Ramos himself during his tenure as musical director for the renowned Orquesta Buena Vista Social Club during their acclaimed Adios Tour from 2014-2016. The orchestra's recent album Greatest Recorded Performances on SSK Records has garnered significant attention, with another release expected later this year.
