There is in it a strong intention to present the mambo, son, cha cha and rumba as expressions of a mixed and diverse idiosyncrasy, which has been enriched over time with the creative ingenuity of many children of this land.<\/p>\n<p>Two events make up a dramaturgical body that begins precisely with that African heritage so present in our sound. Then there is nothing better than La comparsa, by Ernesto Lecuona, to mystically delve into the twentieth century, essential period where several musical genres germinated that will be recreated in the nearly two-hour evening.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_41329\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-41329\" style=\"width: 755px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-41329\" src=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Espect\u00e1culo-de-Isaac-Delgado-Salsa-Mambo-Cha-Cha-Cha-12.jpg\" alt=\"Photo: Roberto Ruiz.\" width=\"755\" height=\"490\" srcset=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Espect\u00e1culo-de-Isaac-Delgado-Salsa-Mambo-Cha-Cha-Cha-12.jpg 755w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Espect\u00e1culo-de-Isaac-Delgado-Salsa-Mambo-Cha-Cha-Cha-12-300x195.jpg 300w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Espect\u00e1culo-de-Isaac-Delgado-Salsa-Mambo-Cha-Cha-Cha-12-750x487.jpg 750w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 755px) 100vw, 755px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-41329\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo: Roberto Ruiz.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Bobby Carcass\u00e9s, ceremonious when playing piano, reveres with his hit Blue con montuno para Benny, dedicated to the King of Rhythm, who without academic knowledge was able to revolutionize from singing and composition the national music. Carcass\u00e9s himself will also play, along with the spectacular band that accompanies him, Que bueno baila usted, by More, and ends the track with that magic and paradigmatic step of the musician born in Santa Isabel de las Lajas.<\/p>\n<p>Rumba does not need metaphors to describe it. The piece is a gem that the Salsa Mambo Chachach\u00e1 Orchestra, led by saxophonist Germ\u00e1n Velazco, plays by heart. It is in these musical passages flavored with guaguanc\u00f3 where the dancing corps of the show stands out the most, and Barbarito Ramos, heir to that tradition grown in Mu\u00f1equitos de Matanzas, shows his best step s, closely followed by the dancer Maykel Font.<\/p>\n<p>One of the most dramatic moments of the night was the Percussion Suite, a segment in which four young and promising musicians show off their most virtuous executions. The performance of Keisel Jimenez, Eduardo Ramos, Edgar Martinez and Jose Morejon leaves many breathless. In a perfect combination of musical tempo, lighting design and concept of the show, these four boys show, as in the past they have done at the Fiesta del Tambor, that they can make a genuine art with the congas, timbales and sticks.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_41330\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-41330\" style=\"width: 755px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-41330\" src=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Espect\u00e1culo-de-Isaac-Delgado-Salsa-Mambo-Cha-Cha-Cha-91.jpg\" alt=\"Photo: Roberto Ruiz.\" width=\"755\" height=\"490\" srcset=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Espect\u00e1culo-de-Isaac-Delgado-Salsa-Mambo-Cha-Cha-Cha-91.jpg 755w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Espect\u00e1culo-de-Isaac-Delgado-Salsa-Mambo-Cha-Cha-Cha-91-300x195.jpg 300w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Espect\u00e1culo-de-Isaac-Delgado-Salsa-Mambo-Cha-Cha-Cha-91-750x487.jpg 750w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 755px) 100vw, 755px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-41330\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo: Roberto Ruiz.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>While, in a duo, Hayla Maria Mompi\u00e9 and Geidi Chapman invite us to travel through Cha Cha Cha in Blue, by Jose Curbelo.
