7:30pm – 10:00pm; Tickets: $33.50–$38.50; (480) 478-6000 or mim.org. Cuba is one of the most creative places on the planet, gifting the world with an occasional superstar from its musical homeland. Today, that gift is singer-composer Daymé Arocena. With exceptional warmth and a powerful presence to augment her virtuosity, Arocena is one of the “most inviting ambassadors” for Cuba’s contemporary music. Santerían chant, rhythmic complexity, fluid jazz styling, and a nuanced Afro-Cuban soulfulness—Arocena channels the elements in service to her audience and culture.
