The 28th annual Jazz Plaza International Festival took place December 20-23, 2012 in Havana Cuba. For 28 years now, the world's most renowned jazz artists have come together to celebrate jazz music in the capitol of Cuba. This year, the Jazz Festival in Havana featured Jimmy Sommers saxophonist as a special guest. Jimmy Sommers' travel and performance was organized and arranged by Marysol Travel Cuba, one of the few foreign-owned travel agencies offering full service Incoming Tour Operator services in Cuba.
During the Festival, Jimmy Sommers first performed in the "La Zorra y el Cuervo" Jazz Club, followed by another act in the Havana Jazz Café, and a Jam Section in Hotel Melia Cohiba where he jammed with Cuban celebrities like Oscar Valdes, co-founder of the Irakere and lead musician of the Diákara band, as well as Jorge Luis Pacheco, Alejandro Falcón y Cubadentro, Achy Lam y Afrocuba, Carlos Averfoff and Wil Campa. Jimmy Sommers' visit to Cuba and his jazz performance was one of the top news stories in Cuba as evidenced by a featured cover announcement in the Cuban Daily newspaper Granma.
"We were very pleased to work with Jimmy arranging his trip. We are most proud of being able to organize his performances with Oscar Valdes and other famous jazz musicians. We also organized sightseeing trips for him where he learned more about the history of Cuba and its people." said Tamas Nagy, sales director of Marysol Travel.
