Buena Vista Orchestra
JESUS “AGUAJE” RAMOS (born August, 1951) is a Cuban trombonist, singer, composer, arranger and musical director. He is known as the composer, arranger and trombonist of The Buena Vista Social Club. He has also served long stints in world class ensembles Estrellas de Areito and Afro-Cuban Allstars. His past musical journey and history is brought into focus throughout the critically acclaimed 1999 documentary “Buena Vista Social Club” and the 2017 follow up “Buena Vista Social Club: Adios”
Ramos and his Buena Vista Orchestra began touring and playing shows in the mid-2010’s, becoming a darling of critics and audiences throughout North America. Jesus “Aguaje” Ramos and his Buena Vista Orchestra continue the legacy of this legendary musical and cultural movement in 2024 with an exciting new stage production and repertoire pulled from Aguaje’s greatest hits (many of which he composed), traditional music and deep-dive cuts.
