Two Cuban-born brothers, both virtuoso musicians – pianist Aldo López-Gavilán and Harlem Quartet violinist Ilmar Gavilán – live on opposite sides of the geopolitical chasm that separates the U.S. and Cuba. Following their parallel lives in New York and Havana, Los Hermanos/The Brothers offers an amazingly heartfelt view of estranged nations through the lens of music and family.
