Escándalo
Rafael Cardénas
Played by: Armando Garzón

Armando is a person who follows his ideals and is not held back by convention. As a result he is an artist with an enormous creative energy which enables him to sing a wide variety of songs from the boleros of his native Santiago de Cuba to the Renaissance music that he studied in his youth. Armando, an excellent arranger of Cuban traditional music, expresses the warmth and romanticism of Cuba with an edge and a style that belongs to the new century. In this classic Mexican bolero, Armando brings his own sweetly ironic flavour to the words of 'Escandalo', Scandal.

El manicero
Moisés Simons
Played by: Eliades Ochoa y Manu Dibango con el Cuarteto Patria

Eliades made his first recording with Discos Corason in 1985, long before the Cuban music boom. In 1996 he toured France where, in a prestigious summer festival, he met the African sax giant Manu Dibango. After an improvised show together they decided to make a recording and this is one track from this memorable encounter of Africa and America.


 

Juramento
Miguel Matamoros
Played by: Melodías Cubanas

This classic Cuban bolero is sung with the full flavour of the Casa de la Trova of Santiago de Cuba in the voice of female duet, Georgina Riveaux and Candelaria Suárez and is a very personal version which remains faithful to the original love song composed on a street very close to the small theatre where the two artists work today.
