Latin Grammy winner Aymée Nuviola is back with a heartfelt tribute to the music and culture of her island. The singer just released an album and documentary titled A Journey Through Cuban Music (Top Stop Music) and talked to CHICA about this fascinating project. “When I meet with Cuban musicians, I reconnect with my roots,” says Nuviola, who lives in Miami with her husband, and traveled to Cuba various times during the making of this production. “That’s my origin, where I went to school and became known as an artist,” she adds of her homeland.
Every time she travels to Cuba, she gets mixed feelings, she admits. “When the plane is about to land I feel: ‘Wow, this is the land I grew up in,’ but on the other hand, most of my family and friends no longer live there,” says Nuviola, whose 74-year-old dad still lives on the island. “What gives you the most nostalgia are those memories engraved in your heart of your adolescence, your childhood, your barrio, your old school.”
