Afro-Cuban All Stars

Description

Prepare for a night of hot Cuban rhythms! Led by trumpeter and Buena Vista Social Club organizer Juan De Marcos González, the high-spirited Afro-Cuban All Stars evoke the sizzling music, explosive dance, and glittering nightlife of Havana’s "golden era.”

The Afro Cuban All Stars, a power-house, 15-piece orchestra comprised of four generations of Cuba’s finest musicians not only capture the fiery big band sound of pre-Castro, 1950s Cuba, but also continue to break barriers with brand-new arrangements that celebrate Cuba’s fantastic musical legacy of Latin dance music, mambo, cha cha, salsa, rumba, and more.

Wherever they play, from the first note to the final huge chord of their encore, Juan de Marcos & the Afro-Cuban All Stars deliver dazzling virtuosity and a scorching hot groove.
