  • Bio

    ...... .. .. .. .. .. Cuban violinist, Osvaldo Rodriguez, graduated from the National School of Music in his native Cuba where he performed with some of the most popular ensembles in the country including the Cuban Symphonic Orchestra, Rojitas and Geraldo Alfonso amongst many others. Osvaldo has also toured extensively with these as well as other Cuban artists to destinations as far flung as Mexico, Peru, Venezuela, and Japan. As a Caracol award-winner, Osvaldo has also composed music for documentaries, film and TV. .... Since arriving in Toronto just four years ago, Osvaldo has already performed and/or recorded with several prominent local bands including Mariachi Mexico Amigo, Cassava Latin Rhythms, Johannes Linstead and Amanda Martinez. He has also appeared in most of the major venues in the city such as the Lula Lounge, the Montreal Bistro, the Red Violin, the Rex Hotel, the Gladstone Hotel, the Distillery, the Harbourfront Centre and, in addition, some of the other major venues in Ontario such as the Niagara Falls Casino. His increasing reputation has resulted in his recent nomination as Violinist of the Year for the National Jazz Awards. .... Osvaldo is rapidly becoming recognized as an accomplished violinist with a dynamic and charismatic stage presence. He has a warm, beautiful sound and outstanding improvisational skills, all of which he couples with genuine “Cuban soul�. Of course, his standing is steadily increasing as an excellent performer and a musician with whom it is a pleasure to work as well. .... .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .......... ...... ..........
