  • Daymé Arocena (born January 1992) is an Afro-Cuban jazz singer from Havana, who has been described as Cuba's "finest young female singer." She won the 2015 Juno Award for the best jazz album, as a member of the jazz band Maqueque performing with Canadian musician Jane Bunnett. Arocena is on National Public Radio's (NPR) list of 50 favourite albums of 2015, with the album Nueva Era. Describing Arocena's voice, NPR host Felix Contreras called her "a cross between Celia Cruz and Aretha Franklin," saying that Arocena's name "deserve[d] to be alongside those two legendary voices." Arocena began performing semi-professionally when she was eight years old; at the age of 14, she became the lead singer of the band Los Primos. She is considered a musical prodigy, and is a trained composer, arranger, choir director, and band leader, in addition to being a singer. Arocena is a strong believer in Santeria, an Afro-Caribbean religion based on Yoruba principles; to mark her faith, she frequently performs wearing a turban and dressed in white. (en)
  • Daymé Arocena (1992ko urtarrila) Habanako jazz-abeslari da, eta "Kubako abeslari gazte onena" dela esan izan da. Jazz-album onenaren Juno 2015 saria irabazi zuen, Maqueque jazz-taldeko kide gisa, musikari kanadarrarekin. Arocena National Public Radio (NPR) 2015eko 50 disko gogokoen zerrendan dago, Nueva Era albumarekin. Arocenaren ahotsa deskribatzean, NPRko Felix Contrerasek esan zuen "Celia Cruz eta Aretha Franklinen artekoa" zela, esanez Arocena izenak "merezi duela bi ahots ospetsu horien ondoan egotea". Zortzi urte zituela hasi zen lanean Arocena erdi profesionalki; 14 urte zituela, Los Primos taldeko kantari nagusia bihurtu zen. Musikazale amorratua da, konpositorea, moldatzailea, koruko zuzendaria eta banda-burua da, abeslaria izateaz gain. Arocena fededun indartsua da Santerian, Yoruba printzipioetan oinarritutako erlijio afrokaribetarrean; bere fedea markatzeko, sarritan, turbante bat eramaten du eta zuriz jantzita agertu ohi da. (eu)
