Orquesta La Moderna Tradición: Afro-Cuban charanga orchestra

  • The Sound Room 3022 Broadway Oakland, CA, 94611 United States (map)

Orquesta La Moderna Tradición plays traditional and modern Cuban music - at once transporting you to an era of sensual danzones and swinging cha-chas and playing modern timba-infused music guaranteed to satisfy dancers from danzón to modern salsa/Cuban music. The only band in the 
United States that plays their brand of music, the Orquesta captures the romance and style of a memorable era in Cuban dance music and will keep everyone on their feet. Violins and flutes weave lilting melodies against the backdrop of driving Afro-Cuban rhythms. As one critic said: 
“Imagine a blend of Tito Puente and a tango, and you'll begin to get an idea of the power and beauty of this music.”
