For decades, the world has been blessed with an electrifying sound that is distinct in the pantheon of brilliant Cuban music thanks to the classic yet constantly evolving compositions and arrangements of the master trumpeter and conductor, Jesus Alemany. After been performance in more than 60 countries worldwide with his latest production, Jesus Alemany & Cubanismo- 30th Anniversary "Aquarelle Cubana", this master musician has gifted us with 11 songs each of which represent the rainbow of rhythms and uniquely Cuban sounds that resonate with lovers of son, cha cha cha, descarga, salsa, timba, Latin jazz…the whole range of music for listening or dancing pleasure.

The new release includes all-star "Candela!" power including stellar singers Haila Mompié, Vannia Borges, Jose "Pepitín el Sonero" Rodríguez, Moisés "Yumurí" Valle, Luis Leyva "Ley Londres" and Mikel Dinza among others, notably the late great Tirso Duarte. The musicians include long-time virtuoso members of Cubanismo, including Jorge Luis Torres "Papiosco" Paurmier on percussion, Lino Lores on tres, Daniel Lopez Ortiz and Jordan Martinez on trombone,Jorge Brauet on tenor and alto sax, Jorge Maza on sax and flute, Alexis Baro on trumpet, Roberto West on bass, Gabriel Hernandez and Ruben González Jr on piano and Jesus Alemany on trumpet and flugel . It simply does not get better.

Whether it's their soulful take on the classic "Manicero", son or modern guaracha, Cubanismo fans will love every cut of "Jesus Alemany & Cubanismo- Aquarelle Cubana". It will take you back to the days when we first were introduced to their electrifying sound, giving us a fresh, much-needed dose of la cultura cubana, pure joy. Dale Mambo!!...A bailar!!
