DANZA CHARANGUERO
popular dances of Cuba
danzón - son - mambo - chachachá - casino

with the Charanga Orquesta ESTRELLAS CUBANAS

"Danza Charanguero" is a spirited celebration of Cuba's popular music and dance heritage focusing on the danzón, son, mambo, chachachá, and salsa-casino. It is these evocative music and dance genres that, in different eras, have erupted onto the world scene, making Cuba one of the few countries whose music and dance has become adopted and practiced internationally.
 

PI-MOZAMBI-SON
with Chaguito y Sus Timberos Cuban music jam session

Descarga in Spanish means to unload. The tradition of descarga in Cuba is about unloading creatively in music - a special form where musicians can improvise and interact with more freedom. To this end, descargas often have stripped down arrangements of a repeating melody line, strong bass, and percussion. With this rhythmic groove solid, individual musicians have permission to solo, invent, and stretch out.

Salsa Cubana Styling

The "Mueve La Cintura" (Move Your Hips) DVD focuses on Cuban salsa dance styling as well as other Cuban dance forms that have been the inspiration and foundation for all the different salsa styles danced throughout the World.

RUEDA DE CASINO COLLECTION
salsa Cubana circle dancing - from Santiago de Cuba

Rueda de Casino is a lively popular Cuban dance form in which couples partner dance in a circle and perform routines that are called by a leader.

This dvd consists of two titles -

1. Rueda de Buen Ache features a group of professional dancers from Santiago de Cuba who demonstrate how they dance together at their own spirited house parties doing rueda de casino as well as trios and cuartetos de casino (one man dancing with two and three women)

2. Rueda Fresca
Rueda Fresca (Fresh Wheel) features two amateur dance troupes of young people from Santiago de Cuba whose specialty is rueda de casino. These dancers are representative of a growing number of Cuban youth who are reconnecting with this dance tradition and making it their own by inventing new turns, moves, and stylings. While still popular as a fun party actively, the latest wave of rueda de casino from Cuba is designed for performance.

cajón-batá-rumba
