Founded in San Francisco in 1996 by master Cuban percussionist and dancerRoberto Borrell and violinist, composer and arranger Tregar Otton, Orquesta La
Moderna Tradición has spent 30 years thrilling dancers and concert audiences
with a sound both deeply rooted and unmistakably alive.
Violins and woodwinds weave through driving Afro-Cuban rhythms in the classic
charanga tradition, while original compositions and timba-infused arrangements
give the orchestra a contemporary edge. A performance can move effortlessly
from the stately beauty of danzón to the buoyant pulse of cha-cha-chá and the full
force of modern Cuban dance music.
Led by Tregar Otton and internationally respected percussionist and educator
Michael Spiro, the ensemble has performed across the United States and
internationally. Its repertoire combines original music with Cuban classics, equally at home in a seated concert, festival setting or dance hall.”
