Cuban pianist and jazz musician, Ernán López-Nussa, won the Grand Prix at the 18th International Cubadisco Fair, Cuba’s top recording industry festival, for his album Sacrilegio, produced by the record label Colibrí.

The CD-DVD also won the award in the Anthology of Versions, Recording, CD-DVD and Jazz categories, as announced at a ceremony held at the Havana based Cuban National Hotel.
