The Old & New Big Band, a group created in 2015 in Inca and directed by saxophonist Luis Depestre dedicates its first project to this artist blind since childhood who in 1987 was awarded the Grammy Award for his artistic career.

The voice of Ray Charles will be replaced by Arthur Hensen, an artist with a rich voice that allows a total versatility when he interprets. They participate in Inca jazz 2015.
