The 'Navegantes Japan Tour 2026' featuring Yacel Sagarra (vocals and guitar) and Rubim de Toledo (bass) offers a musical dialogue between Cuba and Brazil, where Latin American tradition meets a contemporary vision open to improvisation.

Accompanied by leading Japanese musicians in each city, the project expands to incorporate jazz piano, Afro-Latin percussion and dynamic rhythm sections that enhance the groove and harmonic depth.

The repertoire will include classics of Cuban and Brazilian music, original compositions and new songs, making each concert a unique, intimate and vibrant experience.
