"It's basically a jazz-oriented trio, but it has elements of chamber music and Latin American music. It's a unique ensemble." D'Rivera is known for his melding of jazz, classical, rock and traditional Cuban influences in the Orquesta Cubana de Msica Moderna, the Grammy-winning ensemble Irakere, the chamber group Triangulo, the Paquito D'Rivera Big Band and the Paquito D'Rivera Quintet. He has appeared with the likes of the National Symphony Orchestra, London Symphony and Orchestra of St. Luke's, and has composed for various classical and jazz artists and ensembles.

"Music in Cuba," written almost two decades later, is, as Timothy Brennan explains in his lucid and comprehensive introduction, Carpentier's pioneering attempt to chronicle the historical confluence of the two musical streams, from Europe and Africa, that produced the special richness of the Cuban musical tradition.

Extractions: Cuban-American pianist Velia Yedra has concertized extensively, both as soloist and chamber music performer. Highlights of recent seasons include successful tours of South America and Spain. At the time of her acclaimed Carnegie Hall debut, The New York Times hailed her "impressive precisions" and "authority", while praising her "vibrant, spotlessly clean performances." Yedra's concert engagements have included performances as a soloist with the Florida Philharmonic, la Orquesta Sinfonica de Venezuela, la Orquesta de la Sociedad Filarmonica de Mexico, la Orquesta Sinfonica del Peru, and others. She was also a guest artist at the Mozart Festival in Caracas, and the Palm Beach Hispanic Arts Festival. As pianist, author, and lecturer, Yedra is devoted to the promotion of the music of Spain and the Americas. Her first book about the life and works of Cuban composer Julian Orbon was published by the University of Miami's school of International Studies. She was also invited to participate in the Hommage Internationals a Antonio Soler and gave premiere performances of a newly discovered sonata by the composer. Her most recent artistic association with Etcetera Group resulted in a landmark recording of the complete volume of Cuban Dances by Ignacio Cervantes, which will be released this year.

Extractions: Essay by Jack Stewart Many similarities exist between New Orleans vernacular music of the second half of the nineteenth century and the first half of the twentieth century and Cuban vernacular music from the same periods. Taken as a group the danza, the danzon, and the son in Cuba cover roughly the same time period as pre-ragtime, ragtime, and jazz cover in New Orleans. (i) Additionally the same type of debate rages on about the true ethnic origins of Cuban music that constantly surfaces concerning the origins of New Orleans music. (ii) Even though many may not see the similarities between Cuban and New Orleans music at first hearing, they are there. However, one of the biggest problems in seeing them is getting past the differences, which are also there, and perhaps in at least equal number. New Orleans and Cuba both have multi-cultural histories that include some of the same racial and ethnic components-African, Italian, Native American, and Spanish- and they are both part of the cultural system that exists on the edges of the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean. However, the Gulf serves to both unify and separate the respective cultures in the same way that the Mediterranean Sea operates with its own particular periferal "cultural confederation." New Orleans, Cuba, Mexico (especially Veracruz and Tampico), Martinique, and others share many, but not all, of the same cultural elements. Also, New Orleans is part of the Mississippi River cultural system as well as that of the United States. Likewise, Cuba is part of the Central American cultural system as well as that of Latin America as a whole.

Extractions: Born in Havana on June 4, 1948, Paquito D'Rivera was a child prodigy who began his musical studies at the age of five under the tutelage of his father Tito, himself a well-known classical saxophonist and educator in Cuba. At age six, the "wonderkind" was already performing in public, and when he was seven, became the youngest artist to endorse a musical instrument, when he signed on the with legendary Selmer company. In 1958 the ten yearz old D'Rivera performed at the national Theater in Havana, to overwhelming acclaim by both critics and audience. He entered the Havana conservatory at age twelve, and graduated a virtuoso on both the clarinet and saxophone. In 1965 the 19 year old D'Rivera performed as featured soloist with the Cuban National Symphony Orchestra, in a concert broadcast on national television. He was already a veteran of many concerts broadcast throughout Cuba. In 1967 D'Rivera, with pianist Chucho Valdes, founded the renowned Orquesta Cubana de Musica Moderna, which he subsequently conducted for two years. Eight of the younger, more adventurous members of the Orchestra, eventually formed "Irakere", whose explosive mixture of jazz, rock, classical and traditional Cuban music had certainly never been heard before. Irakere's 1978 performance at the Newport/New York and Montreux Jazz Festival caused a sensation, and they made history as the first post-Castro Cuban musicians to record for an American label. But by 1980 D'Rivera was dissatisfied with the constraints placed on his music in Cuba, and in early 1981 while on tour in Spain, he sought asylum at the American Embassy and left his homeland forever.

NEWS Issac Delgado is the very heart and soul of Timba music and will be the subject of a massive section on timba.com which will cover every aspect of his music in great detail, including each of the ground-breaking groups he has assembed over the last decade. We've already covered his early career in our section on the first Timba band, NG La Banda , of which Issac Delgado was a founding member. Issac figures prominently in the first two sections on NG's music. While you wait for our in-depth section on Issac, you can read a brief discography by clicking on "DISCS" above. To fully appreciate Issac Delgado's recordings, it really helps to see the band live. An indiscrimate sampling of some of his more subtle studio tracks could easily lead to the erroneous conclusion that Issac's music is not as daringly original and energetic as some of the other Timba bands. This could not be farther from the truth, as anyone who's seen the band live will confirm. Issac's career spans the whole history of Timba and a huge percentage of Timba's greatest musicians have played with him. When we finish our Issac section we'll give you the full story, but for now, here's:

Looking at the smile on the face of Wim Wenders while he makes the "Buena Vista Social Club" brings a great heaviness to my heart. As a Cuban American, as a filmmaker, an artist and as a writer, I find it impossible to separate art from politics. This is because in Cuba everything in the arts unfortunately is made political. And in the US, when dealing with the arts from Cuba, politics plays a major role, much to my dismay. As an artist in Cuba, I felt stifled by the preponderance of politics in all aspects of my creative life. As a painter, I did not have the freedom to create what I needed in order to express myself. In order to be allowed to work as an actor, I had to accept and follow the political scripts. As a writer, I was not permitted to write anything about the daily reality that could be interpreted as critical of the new society being built. In recent months, the US has participated in what is called "people-to-people cultural exchanges" in what I see as a naive effort to reach out to the citizens of Cuba. Naive because these events ignore the interlace with politics and because ordinary Cubans are forbidden to participate.

Introduction Federico García Lorca. Federico García Lorca is one of the most loved Spanish poets and undoubtedly the most important Spanish dramatist of the 20th century. No other contemporary Spanish poet has achieved such international reputation as Lorca. He was a talented musician, pianist, actor and playwright. He had an extraordinary theatrical imagination and recited from his work with ardent passion and gesticulation. It has been maintained that gipsy blood ran in the veins of his father's family and Jewish blood in the veins of his mother's family. He inherited an extraordinary musical talent from his father's family and intelligence and interest in literature from both families. More has been written about Lorca, in many languages, than about any other contemporary Spanish writer

Held in the Segura Theater, the program ended with pieces by Cuban composers Ignacio Cervantes and Ernesto Lecuona and an arrangement of "La Vida (Life) by singer-songwriter Silvio Rodríguez. Prats’ hands seem to fly like doves over the keyboard whilst the audience’s spirit rejoiced, noted one review. MERCEDES AND PABLO ACCLAIMED • Argentina’s Mercedes Sosa and Cuban Pablo Milanés met with acclaim during an open-air concert in the Jockey Plaza Mall, Lima, Peru. "Solo le pido a dios" (All I Ask of God), whose message of peace could not have been more timely, closed the concert in which Víctor Heredia also performed. Pablo arrived from Quito, where he gave a short, moving concert after 13 years of absence. The performance took place in the Ecuadoran Cultural Center, where he played songs from his CD Días de Gloria (Days of Glory), and well-known "classics" such as "Yolanda" and "Amo esta isla" (I Love This Island).
