Charansalsa
Para Bailar Y Gozar!
CD
(Muziq Records MQ006),
Released 2008;
Editor's Pick:
Here’s another great New York local band, and a new one at that, putting together music at the intersection of charanga and salsa. Led by Joe De Jesus, a trombonist turned flautist, the band is full of salsa veterans, including Pito Castillo, Lewis Kahn, Ernie Acevedo (of Conjunto Imagen) and Julio Salgado, and they take the old form and make it sound fresh. This is music for Saturday night, local music at its best, a form of New York folklore that’s rapidly disappearing. Support the culture and buy the cd, and let the music ring and make your life better.
Highly Recommended. (Peter Watrous, 2008-05-13)
