Cuba Rhythm & Views is the only People to People trip to Cuba that is focused on the Performing and Visual Arts of Cuba. Led by veteran musician and orchestra executive Neil Birnbaum, who has more than 35 years producing the world's finest music and artists.

Enjoy this write-up of our recent (February 2026) trip with Emmet Cohen. Due to the current turmoil exasperated by Trump’s naval blockade, we have regrettably had to cancel our remaining trips this Spring. We are optimistic that conditions will soon resolve and we will be announcing our 2027 trips soon.

With Cuba in the news, I thought I'd post about our recent trip.

Looking forward to hearing Emmet, Joe Farnsworth and Reuben Rogers.

Our Story

Cuba Rhythm & Views is the only legally sanctioned trip that is focused on the Performing and Visual Arts of Cuba. Led by veteran music producers and guides, Woody Wilson and Neil Birnbaum, who have more than 70 years of combined experience in presenting the world's finest music and artists. In 2012, after bringing one of Cuba's renowned chamber music groups to the United States, they decided to create Cuba Rhythm & Views to not only bring Cuba's finest musicians to America, but to legally take Americans to Cuba to experience the island's storied and vibrant cultural life for themselves. In the process, Wilson and Birnbaum have built a cultural exploration of Cuba that is the new benchmark for legal tours of this remarkable and isolated nation.
