DVD1: THE DOCUMENTARY: A comprehensive and detailed history of Latin jazz, from its earliest Cuban roots to the rise to stardom of figures like Chucho Valdés and Gonzalo Rubalcaba. Both of these piano giants are insightfully interviewed and express their thoughts about the music they play. The documentary presents the most outstanding musicians of the genre one at a time, from the best known celebrities to those undeservedly obscure pianists who helped lay down the foundation that Chucho and his followers developed and evolved. Running Time: 118 mins.

DVD 2: A NIGHT IN LA HAVANA: An all-star concert in Havana that covers the complete spectrum of Cuban music, from the early compositions of Ernesto Lecuona to the mastery of Gonzalo Rubalcaba. Among the many highlights shown are Chucho Valdés backing the inimitable Diego "El Cigala", and playing an amazing piano duet with the revered American pianist Herbie Hancock. Running Time: 76 mins.
