Daymé Arocena, an Afro-Cuban singer from Havana now based in Puerto Rico, has been performing semi-professionally since she was 8 years old. She was trained as a composer, arranger, choir director, and band leader (Wikipedia) at conservatory, in addition to being “a practitioner of the Santeria religion, and a master of its profound musical tradition,” (Afropop Worldwide). Arocena was also part of the band Maqueque, an all-female band of young Cuban artists blending folkloric Cuban music and jazz (NPR Music). Since emerging as a solo artist, her songwriting has been a winning mix of jazz, soul, Caribbean, rumba, and folkloric music, imbued with Yoruban spirituality. But her latest release, Alkemi, celebrates the sounds of North American and Latin pop, intentionally so, as she picked Eduardo Cabra of Calle 13 to help produce on the album, which also features guests and sounds from around the Caribbean. Daymé Arocena and her band play some of the songs from Alkemi, in-studio. - Caryn Havlik Set list: 1. America Boy 2. Como Vivir Por El 3. Por Ti

Los primeros minutos del programa los acompaña la música de Evaristo Aparicio, un percusionista y rumbero del barrio de Jesús María que, en el ambiente musical de su tiempo, fue bien conocido como "El Pícaro". Músico natural, su inclinación a la composición nos legó piezas que vale la pena recordar. El Conjunto "Estrellas de Chocolate" de finales de los 50s, nos trajo el son montuno de Evaristo Aparicio: "El kikirikí". A continuación otro conjunto emblemático y otra de las creaciones de "El Pícaro". Con la "Sonora Matancera" y el coro de Rogelio Martinez y Caito, llega Laito Sureda con la exitosa guaracha: "Cañonazos". En la memoria: Evaristo Aparicio. Cantante, percusionista y rumbero. Fundador del grupo "Los Papa Cun Cun". Eran "Los Papines" con "La china linda". A continuación: El Léle, vocalista estrella de "Los Van Van", que nos trae otra de las piezas de Evaristo Aparicio: "La bola de humo". Siguiendo el rastro de la radio independiente cubana recordamos las pruebas que solía efectuar la antigua CMQ RadioCentro a jóvenes aficionados. Así descubrimos a un juvenil Juan Formell, bien influenciado ya en 1958 por la balada y figuras contemporáneas como Neil Sedaka, Paul Anka, Luis Aguilé y, por supuesto, el italiano Domenico Modugno quien por esas fechas triunfaba en el festival de San Remo con su canción "Volare". Sólo una breve introducción a aquel bisoño músico que de cancionero se transformó en el prolífico compositor y timonel de una de las agrupaciones más importantes de la música popular cubana: Los Van Van. Sin dudas el mundo creativo del Juan Formell de los años 60 nos dejó además del llamado changüí 68 (antesala del songo) piezas verdaderamente entrañables que hoy nos devuelven a Elena Burke y Omara Portuondo. "Ya lo sé", "Y tal vez" y "De mis recuerdos". El Conjunto "Rumbavana" nos trae otro de los clásicos de Juan Formell: "Así quiero corazón". En tres tiempos el legado sonoro y estilístico del Conjunto Casino, y muy a propósito unas declaraciones de Roberto Espí, quién fuera cantante y director de la emblemática agrupación, sobre el fenómeno comercial de "la salsa". Mientras en la actualidad se efectúan en la isla "Festivales de la Salsa", y muchos cantantes de música cubana se autodenominan salseros (antes que soneros) los veteranos músicos que desarrollaron sus carreras durante los decisivos años 40 y 50, hacían franco rechazo a dicha etiqueta comercial. La recordada actriz y presentadora Aseneth Rodríguez es quien le pide al director del Conjunto Casino su opinión al respecto. Sucedió en mayo de 1983, en el programa "Rítmicas" de Radio Liberación, producido por José Lino Gallo. Y gracias al desarrollo de la industria del disco independiente, a finales de los 50s la categoría del jazz cubano comenzaba a tener una presencia más sólida en los catálogos. Además del pionero sello Panart vale destacar los esfuerzos de la disquera regenteada por los hermanos Álvarez Guedes. Por primera vez en una edición de 78 revoluciones por minuto aparecían los créditos de los músicos. "Descarga número uno", pieza original de Chico O'Farrill. All Stars Cubano: Emilio Peñalver (sax tenor) Osvaldo Peñalver (sax alto) Peruchín en piano, Tata Güines en tumbadoras y Richard Egües en flauta. El Álbum "Cuban Jazz", es otra de las joyas editadas por la etiqueta Gema de los Hermanos Álvarez Guedes. Luis Escalante en trompeta, Julio Guerrero en flauta, Jesús Caunedo en saxo alto, Paquito Echevarría en piano, Luis Rodríguez y Cachao López en los contrabajos, y Los Papines en las tumbadoras.

This is the first in a series of Cuban music shows that will introduce some of the classics of Cuban music. Cuba, La Isla Bonita where Madonna sings in her eponymous hit is also a musical paradise and one of the most musical places in the world. The creation of a vast number of music styles produced as a result of the combination of European and African musical patterns is outstanding. Son, Rhumba, Habanera, fillin, Mambo, Cha Cha Cha, guajira, trova, guaracha are just among the styles developed in the pearl of the Antilles. In the first show, Sabor Añejo will introduce the old music styles before Fidel Castro and the bearded men took over the running of Cuba. In the 1940s the Tim Pan Alley Publishing house in the US considered the immense appeal of Cuban music and were jealous of the perennial best-sellers Cuba produced compared to the average hits they only managed to make, that only lasted for a few months. Peanut Vendor (El Manisero), La Paloma or Guantanamera are some of these perennial compositions. The only music style included in this first show which was not produced in Cuba is the Latin Jazz groundbreaking piece of Manteca. This jazz hybrid is a composition by the Cuban Conga player Chano Pozo in the Dizzy Gillespie Big Band. Manteca opened a new genre in Jazz form. What was called Cuban Bop, then Cuban Jazz and now Latin Jazz? Antonio Machin, Chano Pozo, Beni More, Arsenio Rodriguez, Guillermo Portabales, Miguelito Valdes, Cachao, Mongo Santamaria, Bebo Valdes, Celina, Perez Prado, Graciela, La Lupe, Machito & his Afro Cubans, Francisco Aguabella, Cuarteto D'Aida, El Gran Fellove and the Buena Vista Social Club are essential names of Cuban music. All of them are included in Sabor Añejo of the Cuban Music.

A few weeks ago, Gregg Tilston and Karim Kanji welcomed the Afro-Cuban Jazz duo OKAN (led by Elizabeth Rodriguez and Magdelys Savigne) to the show! Combining history, heritage, storytelling and spirituality, they share these elements on their new album – Espiral (Spanish for ‘spiral’). Born in Havana, Cuba, Elizabeth Rodriguez is a classically trained violinist who served as concertmaster for Havana’s Youth Orchestra. Magdelys Savigne hails from Santiago de Cuba and graduated with honours in orchestral percussion from Havana’s University of the Arts. Both are JUNO-nominees for their work with Battle of Santiago and Grammy-nominees for their contributions to Jane Bunnett and Maqueque, of which they are former members.

The women-led Toronto band OKAN seamlessly blend their Afro-Cuban roots with jazz, folk, and international flavours. Their music evokes a great deal of passion, so it's rather fitting that their namesake stems from the word for heart in the Afro-Cuban religion of Santeria. I talked to band leaders and real-life couple Elizabeth Rodriguez and Magdelys Savigne about their upcoming sophomore album Espiral, the political turmoil in Cuba, and the trick to keeping their romantic and professional relationships separate.

Hi folks! I accidentally posted the wrong episode….and I repeated Episode 56 rather than 57. Sorry about that. But I’ve corrected it. So give a listen to Episode 57—from the archives. A great show!

You’ll learn more…Continue reading Archives: Episode 56, Afro-Cuban Jazz, Part 2

This is a ‘re-run’ of one of my favourite and in terms of the information presented, probably one of my most ‘dense’ episodes. Afro-Cuban Jazz, while the musicians were exported from Havana, actually began in New York. I’ll introduce you to some of the ‘founders’—-Mario Bauza, Chano Pozo, Dizzy Gillespie, flautist Alberto Soccoras, Nilo Menendez,…Continue reading Archives: Episode 55, Cuban Jazz–a History.

This is the last episode of the Cuban Jazz series.  And I’ve decided to feature a Juno award winning Cuban-Canadian group of women.

This week’s episode starts by talking about how resilient Cuban jazz musicians were able to forge a brand new style of music.  It was their way of making the best out of being told they weren’t allowed to play the music of “imperialist America”.  It evolved into Iraquere, and formed the basis of what people…Continue reading Episode 57, Cuban Jazz Part 3

In celebration of the coming of Maqueque—a group of five Cuban women plus flautist/soprano saxophonist Jane Bunnett–coming to Peterborough in April, I’m starting a three part series on Afro-Cuban Jazz. Today’s episode tracks its ‘modern’ history, from the 1920’s in New York.  Yup!  That was the birthplace of Afro-Cuban Jazz, not Havana or New Orleans.…Continue reading Episode 55: Afro-Cuban Jazz, A History

Pianists Chucho Valdes and Arturo O'Farrill honor their fathers, Latin jazz greats Bebo Valdes and Chico O'Farrill, on a new album. Here, the younger O'Farrill discusses Familia on Alt.Latino.

 Harold López-Nussa was born into a musical family in Havana in 1983. Not only are his father and uncle—Ernán, a pianist—working musicians, but also his late mother, Mayra Torres, was a highly regarded piano teacher. At the age of eight, López-Nussa began studying at the Manuel Saumell Elementary School of Music, then the Amadeo Roldán Conservatory and finally graduating with a degree in classical piano from the Instituto Superior de Artes (ISA). The conservatory-trained pianist is the first Cuba-based musician (he has dual citizenship in both Cuba and France) to release an album internationally since the lifting of many of the restrictions associated with the longstanding trade embargo. In 2005 he played at the Montreux Jazz Festival, where he was awarded the First Prize and the Audience Award in Solo piano Competition, and he was recently awarded the French musical society’s  ADAMI as "Talent Jazz 2011".With the release of El Viaje  with younger brother Ruy Adrián López-Nussa on drums and percussion; and Alune Wade on bass and vocals, he appears on the brink of a global breakthrough. High Sunday, a LA-based band that specializes in sizzling energy and a massive hip-hop presence is releasing their debut single, "Wonderland"  This December. The group is an eclectic mix of the talents of five men and two women -   Eddie Core, Ike Deezl, Nick Fazekas, Evann Lewis, Nicole Row, Drin Elliot and Ryan Evangelista. They consistently produce a fresh take on hip hop by combining elements from jazz, rock, reggae and funk Their new track "Wonderland", uses  dizzying horns and chromatic synths to create a  progressive hip-hop, accented with booming basslines and menacing vocal layers over an unstoppable beat.
