About this Event
Orquesta La Moderna Tradición is excited to be back at Rocky's Brooklyn Basin playing their own brand of Cuban charanga!
Featuring the best of the Bay Area Cuban music scene, they will be performing with Félix Samuel on lead vocals, Marco Díaz on piano, Carlitos Medrano on congas, Remi Spiro on timbales, Tregar Otton, Sandy Poindexter and Anthony Blea on violins, Ayla Dávila on bass, John Calloway on flute, Sage Baggott on güiro and coros, and Maru Pérez-Viana singing coros.
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.”
