Enjoy a night in old Havana with
Orquesta La Moderna Tradición - DANCE PARTY
Friday, November 14th, 2008 at 8:00pm

On the eve of its celebratory 10th year, Sonoma Valley Museum of Art will host Cuban band Orquesta La Moderna Tradición, for a night of music that will transport guests to the Havana social clubs of the 1950s. With a special focus on danzon with swinging cha-chas, the 12-piece ensemble captures the style of a memorable era in Cuban dance music. Known as the only band in the United States to play this type of danzon and Cuban music, Orquesta La Moderna Tradición plays everything from traditional ballads, to the latest salsa and timba grooves, with violins and flutes against driving Afro-Cuban rhythms.
