Pianomaster Jorge Luis Prats recorded in Bimhuis Amsterdam: ‘Danzas Cubanas’ composed by Ignacio Cervantes, From 'Bachianas Brasileiras’ nr 4 ‘Miudinho’ composed by Heitor Villa-Lobos, ‘Siempre en mi corazón’ (always in my heart) written by Ernesto Lecuona, Instrumental and with Omara Portuondo. 00:00 - 01:35 from: Danzas Cubanas’ composed by Ignacio Cervantes 01:36 - 04:36 From 'Bachianas Brasileiras’ nr 4 ‘Miudinho’ composed by Heitor Villa-Lobos 04:36 - 06:46 ‘Siempre en mi corazón’ Instrumental (always in my heart) written by Ernesto Lecuona 06:46 - 09:11 'SIempre en mi Corozón with Omara Portuondo ‘Siempre en mi corazón’ (always in my heart) performed in 2008 by pianist Jorge Luis Prats and singer Omara Portuondo. It was just a coincidence that they met in our television programme. But they knew each other, because “all cuban artists know each other” Prats told in the interview. Prats called Portuondo “the most important singer of our culture, she is an icon”. Omara Portuondo said about Prats: “he is the most beautiful man on earth and I love his playing”. Performing together was a dream that came true for them and for us. Also wonderful to see that a classical pianist like Prats also know how to accompany a popular song like ‘Siempre en mi corazon’ written by Ernesto Lecuona. This video was recorded in 2008 in Bimhuis Amsterdam for VPRO Vrije Geluiden: music program made by the Dutch public broadcast organization VPRO    / vrijegeluiden     / vrijegeluiden   twitter, instagram @vrijegeluiden #piano #jorgeluisprats #classicalmusic
