There is a tradition\u00a0emerging from\u00a0the\u00a0music we listen to\u00a0and a particular sound\u00a0that\u00a0comes from the musical clef\u00a0and\u00a0the bell,\u00a0aCuban\u00a0melody\u00a0which\u00a0the members\u00a0of the group have\u00a0become\u00a0in\u00a0musical instrument.<\/p>\n
Vega\u00a0confesses being a city music man,\u00a0although “I like this world of\u00a0rumba\u00a0and\u00a0conga”.\u00a0So he accepted\u00a0without hesitation\u00a0the\u00a0phonographic\u00a0project of Bejucal\u00a0Drums\u00a0and\u00a0the album \u00a850\u00a0son\u00a050\u00a8 is\u00a0a tangible fact.<\/p>\n
A\u00a0wide repertoire,\u00a0collected into\u00a0half a century\u00a0of artistic work,\u00a0was made available toEmilio.\u00a0There,\u00a0of course,\u00a0the seal\u00a0of the band\u00a0blossomed, which\u00a0is unlike\u00a0the congas\u00a0from\u00a0Santiago de\u00a0Cuba\u00a0and\u00a0Havana.\u00a0This musical style from\u00a0Bejucal carries\u00a0the\u00a0coupling\u00a0of\u00a0trumpets,\u00a0trombone,clef,\u00a0bell and\u00a0of course, drums.<\/p>\n
“These are\u00a0historical\u00a0phonograms,”Emilio\u00a0Vega\u00a0told\u00a0On\u00a0Cuba, who has produced\u00a0albums\u00a0by\u00a0Afrocuba,\u00a0Mu\u00f1equitos de\u00a0Matanzas,\u00a0Clave y\u00a0Guaguanc\u00f3\u00a0and\u00a0Yoruba Andabo.\u00a0“Many people\u00a0do not knowwhat\u00a0Bejucal\u00a0Drums are and\u00a0it\u00a0is extremely\u00a0important people to know\u00a0the riches\u00a0of our music, our traditions.\u00a0The historical legacy\u00a0must remain\u00a0for when\u00a0the founders of these\u00a0groups\u00a0have passed away, “he noted.<\/p>\n
Pa\u00b4\u00a0que tu me llamas,\u00a0El\u00a0Kuini\u00a0Kuini, Coco\u00a0pa\u00b4\u00a0Yemaya, Mozambique\u00a0No 1\u00a0and\u00a0Zapateo \u00d1\u00e1\u00f1igo\u00a0offer\u00a0us\u00a0a trip\u00a0to African roots\u00a0that is also present\u00a0in our\u00a0sound.\u00a0The album, with a total of\u00a013\u00a0tracks-includes\u00a0an exquisite\u00a0version of\u00a0Schubert\u2019s Ave\u00a0Maria,\u00a0where\u00a0intervenes\u00a0Barbara\u00a0Llanes,\u00a0and the luxurious\u00a0closing\u00a0of the marvelous \u00a8Suite\u00a0Final de\u00a0Congas Tradicionales.\u00a8<\/p>\n
Emilio\u00a0Vega\u00a0thinks there is an\u00a0international\u00a0market that\u00a0nicely\u00a0assimilates these products.\u00a0“It is\u00a0something exotic\u00a0with very strong\u00a0roots.”\u00a0That is why\u00a0I guess\u00a0the CD we recorded\u00a0with Egrem\u00a0between January and\u00a0June last\u00a0year will have\u00a0an undoubted success.<\/p>\n
According to Vega the reason is simple\u00a0for everyone.\u201d\u00a0There are\u00a0continuators\u00a0of this melody\u00a0and a consciousness\u00a0to preserve\u00a0all this …\u00a0I am\u00a0a fan of\u00a0all music\u00a0but when Bejucal drums sound, it is inevitable to\u00a0dance.”<\/p>\n
