Meet Gema Corredera
In January 2013, Cubana Jazz vocalist Gema Corredera, currently a resident of Miami, released a fine new album, Derramando Luz, that is winding its way through the early round of the 56th GRAMMY Awards process. We'll be reviewing it soon, especially since Gema is backed by some familiar names including Yosvany Terry (who is Music Director for the project and co-produced), Yunior Terry, Manuel Valera, Osmany Paredes, Alfredo Chacón and Obed Calvaré. Here is a video clip about the release:
Speaking of Yosvany Terry, congratulations Yos for being awarded the Cintas Fellowship 2013 for composers! More about this in our Movimiento en Miami report, which also features a guest article by Eva Silot Bravo about Danay Suárez this week.
