Son de Cuba are very excited to be back at R&V.. where it all began.
Son de Cuba, which was launched at R&V in August 2019, is the first-ever New Zealand and more specifically Wellington-based 100% Cuban Quartet featuring Roberto Rodriguez Boffil (La Isla de la Juventud), Angel Manuel Guilarte Medina (Santiago de Cuba) and Ernesto Zuñiga Silva (Trinidad de Cuba) on their Cuban tres and guitarras, and Rafael Ferrer Noel (La Habana/Las Tunas) on his Cuban congas.
Son de Cuba is who they are and what they play*.
A bailar, a gozar.. a lo cubano!
***
*The ensemble's name literally means They are from Cuba... It also means Son (style of Cuban music from the 50s popularised by the Buena Vista Social Club) from Cuba”. And if you play on the translation and stretch a bit it also can mean Son(s) of Cuba.
