Maxima 79 Salsa Orchestra

Europe - Milano - Italy

Maxima 79 Salsa Orquestra was born in Milano – Italy in the year 2010 of the idea of the DJ and Musical Producer Fabrizio Zoro.

Maxima 79 Salsa Orchestra

Fabrizio Zoro had the magnificent idea of making music, returning to the sound of the 70’s for dancers with a modern sound and, at the same, time of the golden age of salsa in New York.

With two productions made with high quality and an original and rich sound in Afro-Caribbean rhythms.

The two titled albums, Returning to Guaguanco in 2013 and Joseito in 2016, have given him a seat in the best dance halls across the European continent and thanks to all his successes, the orchestra is recognized worldwide as one of the best Salsa groupings for the dancer.

The original compositions by the hand of Fabrizio Zoro founder, director and performer of the bongo, bell and guiro, carrying Afro-Caribbean Rhythms in the soul, at the same time, Fabrizio tells us that Cuba is the most important musical novelty in the whole basin from the Caribbean and the world and for this reason they returned to the origins of the Traditional Salsa with a musical work entitled “Cuban Session” dedicated to typical rhythms of the Big Island such as Timba, the Cuban Son and the Traditional Changüí.

The musical arrangements of the productions were prepared by Fabrizio and Marco Puma, the official pianist of the orchestra and, also, known as the best-known Italian bachatero in the world, but with this album he has shown that his first passion stays within the key that beats in his immense salsa soul.

In their ten years of experience, they have been awarded the Honorable Mention USA and Songwriting Competition awards in 2014.

Orquesta 704 It is a musical group, made up of the best musicians in the Charlotte NC area

Orquesta 704 was created in 2018 by Javier Mendoza (singer) and Julio Hernández Dipini (Trombone and Director) when Javier and Julio were looking for the name for the Orchestra, many names came up, but none caused an impact, while Javier was driving on the road Interstate I-77 saw a sign on the highway and said to himself, this may work, so a very striking logo was used and put 704, because these numbers are the area code of the area where Javier and Julio live.

Orquesta 704, had a very good acceptance by the salsa audience, coming to perform on various stages, such as the Charlotte Puerto Rican Festival alternating with El Gran Combo de Puerto Rico and La Sonora Ponceña.

They also began to accompany artists who were recommended with Orquesta 704, for the responsibility, seriousness and professionalism on the part of all the members who make up Orquesta 704.
