notes
"Their cadence is so sensual that it's virtually irresistible!"
-Enrique Fernandez, Miami Sun Sentinel
At the first note, you’ll want to jump out of your seat. Orquesta La Moderna Tradición transports you to an era of sensual danzones and swinging cha-chas—the music of the Havana social clubs of the 1950s. The only band of its type in the United States, the 12-piece ensemble captures the romance and style of a memorable era in Cuban dance music.
Violins and flutes weave lilting melodies against the backdrop of driving Afro-Cuban rhythms. The orchestra’s repertoire ranges from traditional ballads to the latest salsa and timba grooves with surprising twists: you should hear their spin on the old church tune “Golden Slippers.” As one critic put it: “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.”

author: Irma MoralesMy parents were from Veracruz, Mexico and I grew up listening to "Danzones" and Afro-Cuban music - Orquesta la Moderna Tradicion (En Canto) transported me to happier times. Listening to their music makes my heart rejoice with happiness/nostalgia. What a fabulous orquesta! I was fortunate enough to see them live in Sacramento recently (WOW!)..que viva el Danzon hoy y siempre!
