SABROSO! CHANGUí MAJADERO plays LIVE CHANGUÍ, & SON, the roots of SALSA, with very special guest, visiting Cuban dancer, ROYLAND LOBATO! Between sets DEEJAY WARAPO will be dropping those hot contemporary Cuban dance beats they’re dancing to from Havana to Santiago de Cuba including CUBAN TIMBA, RUMBA, and REGGAETÓN!
To enjoy the band to the max, you’re invited to take a class in CHANGUÍ and SON with ROYLAND and KATI HERNÁNDEZ at 5:30 pm. Hopefully they’ll also give a demo of how these rhythms are danced in Cuba to appreciate the Cuban phrase, “EL SON ES EL MÁS SUBLIME! ” (’Son is the most sublime!”).
Along with al you dancers, KATI’s PA’ LA ORILLA DANCE TEAM will keep it happening on the dance floor all night.
Chef Israel has a varied menu for hungry dancers. He has added some special Cuban dishes for us including Curuye’s fave lechón asado (lroasted pork) with black beans and rice among the entrees.
We’ll be celebrating September birthdays ALMA ÁLVAREZ SALAZAR, RICARDO SALAZAR with a special Cuban Birthday dance!
