[CubaNews] Caribbean girls to produce thaws in Moscow



Caribbean girls to produce thaws in Moscow

Author: Jorge Petinaud Martinez

Moscow, (PL).- The Cuban rhythms interpreted in Moscow, by the Cuban female
orchestra Caribes Girls (Caribbean Girls) made hundreds of people forget
about the light frost that is invading this capital city at the beginning of
the winter.

It is fair to call accomplices instead of spectators to the workers of the
Cuban embassy in Russia as well as the Russian people who make up the
solidarity groups with Cuba, who never stopped dancing for nearly two hours.

Since the opening of the concert in the United Russia Theater with the band
theme with a conga rhythm, the girls lead by the keyboard player Thiving
Guerra showed their credentials of the show they would offer.

Afterwards, the well fitted voices of the choirs and soloists the three
singers, the power and the tuning of the two trombones in the mambos and the
contemporary harmony of the orchestrations, but with the rhythmic taste of
the roots, made the room burn.

There has to be a different mention for the variety of different rhythms
offered by a young and good band made up by a drummer, a conga player and a
bass player educated in the Cuban national system of artistic teaching.

If the son, timba and regueton versions of famous international themes
caused enormous enthusiasm, it was even more with the themes that were
inspired by Cuban authors.

The presentation of some of the proposals for the second album that is being
prepared by those ten young women, together with the Cuban producer who
received a Grammy Award, Joaquín Betancourt, produced a los of dancing and a
?train? around the entire theater which included hundreds of persons.

Premieres such as Cariñito, La Habana, El Caracolito and versions of No me
parezco a nadie (I don?t look like anybody) and El quimbombó ? a tribute to
the son singer Félix Chappotín?still enjoy the preference of the national
and foreign public and made the bis necessary.

Sententious, a Cuban diplomat declared a categorical verdict about the
performance of the Caribbean Girls, while he cleaned his forehead with a
handkerchief. It seems to me as if I was coming out of the Benny Moré Pink
Room, in Havana. Something like the Mecca for dancers.
