Real Rumba from Cuba - CD

This collection brings together the best guaguanco, columbia and yambu of Cuban rumba played by the masters of the tradition, all of them heirs of the original "coros de rumba" that grew up in the barrios around Havana and Matanzas at the end of the last century. Vocalist and chorus interweave the lines of their songs above the frenzy of percussion led by the quinto drum which directly challenges the dancers. 11 performances. Notes in Spanish.
