During the opening of the exhibition 'A mí me manda Carmen', a showcase of Cuban artists paying tribute to the extraordinary creator Carmen Herrera, who passed away just over a year ago in New York City, the Museum of Contemporary Art of the Americas in Kendall will host the talented violinist Patricia Vega González-Piñera.
As part of our Art & Music program, the young artist will share her music with attendees at the exhibition opening. Patricia obtained a Bachelor's degree in Music from the Higher Institute of Art in Havana (ISA) last January, specializing in violin. By then, she had already gained considerable experience in concerts, special events, and studio recordings. With a formidable talent for chamber music and classical music, she already masters the technical aspects of violin performance and is accustomed to eliciting feelings of admiration and respect from audiences.
She was a violinist in a popular music quartet and a violin teacher at the National School of Art in Havana (ENA). Recently, she joined the orchestra of the Mozartian Lyceum of Havana as a violinist. She has provided background music for ballet performances, operas, musical theater, and cabarets. She has recorded music for musicians and artists such as Omara Portuondo, Pancho Amat, Ivette Cepeda, among others. She has participated in concerts in Switzerland, Canada, and France. She currently resides in the United States.
