CUBAN CHRISTMAS Sarah Willis, Sarahbanda | Deutsche Grammophon

Sarah Willis, horn-player of the Berliner Philharmoniker, announces her upcoming album Cuban Christmas. On it, she teams up with the Sarahbanda and together they inject the colourful, contagious energy of Cuban music into a selection of timeless holiday classics. 

The album further includes works by Bach and Tchaikovsky – these too reimagined with Cuban flair. “Cuban Christmas is a celebration of culture, connection, and the music that makes the season magical,” says Willis. “I truly hope it brings as much happiness to your home as it brought to mine while creating it.” 

Listen to a first pre-release track, the Allegro from Bach’s Brandenburg Concerto No. 3. The full album is released digitally, on CD and on vinyl on 3 October and is now available for pre-order.
