SomArts
Sunday Social Club
featuring
Orquesta La Moderna Tradición
has revived their popular Sunday afternoon concert series.
We will create our own sociedad dedicated to great music. |
| Possibly
the only orchestra of its kind inside or outside of Cuba, Orquesta
La Moderna Tradición dedicates itself to the performance
of classic Cuban dance music, especially the lilting grooves of
the Danzón. A legendary ballroom style that developed from
the syncretization of African and European music in Cuba, Danzón
blends the groove of Afro-Cuban drums with the refined riffs of
flute and violins. Led by renowned Cuban Percussionist and dancer
Roberto Borrell and violinist/composer Tregar Otton, Orquesta
la Moderna Tradiciňn performs classics of the genre along
with original compositions designed to keep the tradition alive
and kicking. In addition to Danzones, the Orquesta plays the gambit
of traditional and modern Cuban styles, from Sones to Songos and
from Cha-Cha-Chá to Timba. |
