This Week in the Voice: Arturo O'Farrill's Journey for His Father

This week in the Voice, Larry Blumenfeld chronicles Grammy-winning pianist Arturo O'Farrill's trip to Havana to, in his words, "complete a musical, spiritual, and cultural journey for my father." His father, Chico O'Farrill, was revered in the Jazz world, a "stone genius, on the level of Duke Ellington and Charles Mingus." Chico had left Cuba for good in 1959, but Arturo took it upon himself to bring his music back.
