Israel “Cachao” López, a Cuban musician and composer, has been hailed as “the Inventor of Mambo”

Born in Havana on September 14, 1918, and passing away in Coral Gables, Miami, on March 22, 2008, Israel “Cachao” López, often known simply as “Cachao,” was a Cuban musician and composer.

Israel Cachao López musico y compositor cubano, ha sido definido como el Inventor del Mambo

He became a legend in Cuban music with his masterful handling of the double bass and was renowned for his performances in mambo and Latin jazz.

His talent earned him two Grammy Awards (in 1995 and 2005), a Latin Grammy in 2003, an honorary doctorate from Berklee College of Music, and a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

He has been described as “the inventor of mambo” and is considered a master of descarga (live improvisations).

He began by playing various instruments until he settled on the double bass, which allowed him, as a teenager, to join the Havana Philharmonic Orchestra, where his father and older brother also played.

“Cachao” left Cuba in 1962 with a long list of successes and stated in a 2007 interview that if it weren’t for his compatriot and colleague Dámaso Pérez Prado, “mambo would not have been heard worldwide.”

His first stop was Madrid, where he stayed for a year before emigrating to the United States. In the U.S., he resided in New York City, Las Vegas, and Miami.

López also played acoustic bass with his brother, the multi-instrumentalist Orestes López. They literally composed over 3,000 songs together and were highly influential in Cuban music from the 1930s to the 1950s.

They created the “nuevo ritmo” (new rhythm) in the late 1930s, which transformed the danzón by introducing African rhythms into Cuban music, ultimately leading to mambo.

He won several Grammy Awards for both his own work and his contributions to albums by Latin music stars, including Gloria Estefan. In 1995, he won a Grammy for Master Sessions Volume 1.

In 2003, he won a Latin Grammy for Best Traditional Tropical Latin Album alongside Bebo Valdés and Patato for El Arte Del Sabor. He won another Grammy in 2005 for his work ¡Ahora Sí!

His nephew, Orlando “Cachaíto” López, became one of the pillars of the famous Buena Vista Social Club.

Cachao performed with artists such as Tito Puente, and his music has been featured in films like The Birdcage and the soundtrack of the video game Grand Theft Auto: Vice City.

The Actor Andy Garcia produced a documentary titled Cachao… “Como Su Ritmo No Hay Dos” in 1993 about his music. He also shared stages with Celia Cruz and her husband Pedro Knight, as well as with trombonist Generoso Jiménez.

His last musical collaboration was with Gloria and Emilio Estefan on the singer’s album titled 90 Millas.

López passed away on the morning of March 22, 2008, in Coral Gables, Florida, at the age of 89, due to complications following kidney failure.

Caesar Vera Y Su Sexteto NuevoSon, traditional Cuban music with a touch of modernity

It is very important for us to show and provide coverage to the most important Latin music artists of today in the United States and now it is the turn of Chicagoan musician Caesar Vera, who very kindly accompanied us in this edition of International Salsa Magazine.

Caesar is the current director of Caesar Vera Y Su Sexteto NuevoSon, which we will talk about later along with other equally important issues for the musician’s career.

How Caesar began his journey in music

Although Caesar has developed his professional life in Miami and currently lives there, he was actually born in Chicago and spent the early years of his life there. His parents arrived from Cuba in 1966 in the freedom flights and, once in the United States, the Catholic Church helped them and placed them in Chicago, where he was born and lived until 1978. Later, the couple divorced and his father went to live in Miami, so Caesar spent long holiday periods together with him in that city.

The path with music for Caesar began in high school, when he became very interested in rock music, to the point of creating a band with some of his classmates. He played the drums and was a huge fan of Led Zeppelin, Kiss, Van Halen, and other groups of that style.

The only connection the young man had with Latin music was his grandfather, who loved to dance danzón and always played Orquesta Aragón records so that they could both move to the beat music in the living room of his house. Although these moments with his grandfather were very pleasant, he did not yet like this kind of music, but that would change over the years.

In Miami, there was a time when there were many Latin bands playing, and every corner had a nightclub with orchestras playing. Caesar and his friends used to attend these places a lot, which led the young man to finally become interested in these genres. This coincided with the arrival from Cuba of his uncle who was a musician and had a band there, which they talked about constantly, and he even taught his nephew to play instruments such as the tumbadora, bongos, timbales, and all minor percussion.

In 1987, what happened was a turning point for Caesar musically speaking, as he finally decided to take Cuban music more seriously and study its history to understand it better.

Groups prior to Caesar Vera Y Su Sexteto Nuevo Son

Before creating his own group, the wife of a friend who had a group invited him to play percussion with them, a proposal Caesar accepted, and he started playing the tumbadora with the orchestra. Something new in this case was that he had never played with an established band in formal performances, so it was something new for him.

By 1992, he had met the famous Cuban bongo player Juan Méndez, who had played with the Roberto Faz Orchestra, Roberto Torres, and Luis Santi Y Su Conjunto. Méndez told him that he needed a bongo player in an orchestra he was forming at the time and asked Caesar to fill the vacancy, to which he answered yes and remained in the group until 2003, that is, for around 11 years.

In addition to that, he was a replacement in various orchestras in Miami for a while, one of which was Gilberto Díaz Y Su Conjunto Los Profesionales. He was with them for two years, but by then traditional Cuban music, more specifically Cuban son, had captured his full attention. It just so happens that one of his orchestra fellows told him that Norberto from the group Norberto Y Marcela Y El Septeto Caribe called him because they needed a bongo player and asked if he was interested in the vacancy. Caesar did not think twice and went to play with the orchestra even though he did not have much experience with the bongos, but he took the risk anyway. It was with this group that he started playing traditional Cuban music and prepared to do the same once he became independent.

Caesar and his bandmates — These are the band members from left to right: bongo player Caesar Vera, singer Billy Velazquez, tres player Roberto Acosta, bassist Arturo Senti, conga player Hebert Garcia, and trumpet player Orlando Fraga

Foundation of Caesar Vera Y Su Sexteto NuevoSon

Still playing with Norberto and Marcela, Caesar started having his own creative ideas on how to lead an orchestra, but he could not carry them out because he was only a musician who collaborated with the orchestra, which started to bother him and cause him enormous dissatisfaction. One day, his wife saw him stressed and frustrated by the situation, leading her to ask him why he did not become independent and create his own project.

That is when he started thinking about it seriously until, in early 2007, he finally founded the group Fusión 4 with Carlos Alberto “El Flaco”, who had previously sung with Fajardo Y Sus Estrellas, Larry Harlow, and La Fania. They managed to play every Saturday at the Deauville Jazz Club for a year.

However, the sextet as we know it today was created just two years ago because it was costing to Caesar much to find work for such a large orchestra, especially after the pandemic when much of the live music scene fell off a cliff.

Today, some of its members are tres player Roberto Acosta, bassist Arturo Santi, conga player Hebert García, trumpeter Orlando Fraga, and singer Billy Velázquez.

The best of Cuban music in Tampa with Cuband Son Band

We are very happy to be able to talk with Lizandro Muñoz, Liaudriz Fuentes, and Alfredo Sotolongo, who are part of the Cuban music group Cuban Son Band. We will know a little about each of them and the orchestra as such so that the public can get to know them and identify them.

Although all the musicians are coming from Cuba such as the genres they play, they met in Tampa, Florida, where they currently reside and have developed their respective musical careers.

How Lizandro, Liaudriz, and Alfredo became interested in music

Lizandro was the first who talked a little about himself and started by describing how his father played the guitar and began teaching his son to do the same. After attending the pre-university studies and playing guitar along with a group for about four years, he did his military service and moved to Spain to work with a number of groups at many Latin music events, especially Cuban music, which was what he played most.

Itis at this point in the conversation that Liaudriz, the group’s keyboardist, joined the meeting. After saying hello and introducing himself, he began to explain that he started in music at a very young age in Cuba, more specifically on the Isle of Youth or the Isle of Pines, as it was known before. As a child, he already had a lot of affinity for the guitar just like Lizandro, but also for everything related to percussion, which led him to take the respective tests to enter a music school.

That was when he went through the elementary, middle, and part of the upper levels. He did not complete the latter, as he got the opportunity to move to the United States.

When Alfredo, Cuban Son’s violinist, slipped into the conversation, he and the boys joked about whether he remembered how he started in music due to his age. He then relates starting in music at about 10 and is now 66, so much water has flowed under the bridge since then. He studied at the National School of Art up to the fifth level for five years, where he trained as a percussionist, singer, and violinist, but had to withdraw due to family problems. However, his great strength helped him keep the lights on.

By not being enrolled in any institution, he began his training at home. Several members of his family were helping him to continue his dream and one of whom was his uncle, a flutist who played in Los Van Van, who inspired him to follow his path in the world of music. This is how he resumed his academic training and received an A grade in singing and an A grade in violin lessons.

He was in the Cuban Institute of Radio and Television Orchestra, better known as ICRT for its acronym in Spanish, and made some recordings with Los Van Van as a violinist. In 1998, he emigrated to Israel, where he worked as a musician for 10 years and even played in an orchestra known as Jerusalem Salsa Band, in which he alternated with several great artists such as Alfredo de La Fe, Buena Vista Social Club, and many others.

After those 10 years, he moved to the United States in search of new opportunities, which led him to make contact with Lizandro and Liaudriz from Cuban Son, which he joined about two years ago.

Alfredo added that one of the things that brought them together was that his now bandmates were following the way of son, the same path as their ancestors, who were soneros. It is in their blood and they had that in common.

How Cuban Son Band got started

Liaudriz again takes the floor and assures that the affinity between them was also due to the need Cubans feel to continue making music from their native land despite the distance and the way many of them come together to do this work. This is something that has mushroomed in Tampa in recent years due to the large number of Cubans who have arrived there.

“Cuban Son Band emerged from our need to share the music of our country not only here in Tampa, but also in other cities in Florida,” said the young keyboardist on this subject.

Lizandro added that several members of the group came from a much larger orchestra, but for economic and practical reasons, they left it and opted for a smaller, more compact format. This also gave them the freedom to make the music they wanted without consulting many people.

The biggest challenges Cuban Son faced at first

Regarding the receptivity of the people to Cuban Son Band’s work, Alfredo pointed out that they always try to make their music as traditional as possible so that the audience may know it. What has made things easier for them was his senior audience that misses these genres and enjoys listening to them, even if they are not what is trendy right now. There are many new genres in Cuba, such as reggaeton and cubatón, but the audience between 30 and 40 years old are not fans of that kind of music, but of more traditional genres such as bolero, bachata, changuí, and others.

Lizandro also added that as long as they offer something traditional, original, and authentic, language barriers should not be a problem, even though most of their fans are American. One of the biggest challenges for the group has been communication, precisely because of the language of their lyrics, but that has not prevented them from being listened to and fervently supported.

In addition to that, they rely on covers of well-known English songs to connect even more with their non-Latin listeners, which has made them accept their work even more willingly. Their traditional foundation and open mind to new things have been the key to their progress.

Current members of Cuban Son Band

Alfredo pointed out that they always try to be as loyal as possible to their main project, which is Cuban Son Band, but they are also aware that it will not always be possible for them to play only with their main orchestra, as they will have to work on other projects due to their economic situation.

Liaudriz also said that something that benefits them is that Tampa is a city that is growing a lot as for the Latin music scene, resulting in more and more work for them and groups with the same characteristics. This allows them to call each other and help each other without egos or pettiness.

Inspirations for each one

Alfredo was inspired as a singer by artists such as Ibrahim Ferrer, Pacho Alonso, Felix Chappottín, Pedrito Calvo, Oscar D’ León, Gilberto Santa Rosa, among others. in one way or another, all of them have honored Cuban music and that makes them bastions of what Cuban Son wants to achieve.

For his part, Lizandro mentioned Buena Vista Social Club, Omara Portuondo, Compay Segundo, Adalberto Álvarez, Chucho Valdez, Juan Formell, Bebo Valdéz, and Benny Moré.

Gabriel from the band Changüí Majadero talks about traditional Cuban Music

Latin America is the birthplace of so many different musical genres that a lot of us could never even know them all. Although salsa is our main focus, there are many Latin genres that also deserve our full attention and, in this writing, we are going to talk about one of them: the changüí. That is why we interviewed one of its main exponents: Gabriel García, leader and founder of the band Changüí Majadero.

Gabriel’s beginnings in music

Gabriel started relating a little of his history with music. Something interesting to say about this artist is that his beginnings in music did not take place as a child like many others, but when he was about 19 years old.

Before being a musician, Gabriel was an amateur boxer since he was a child and, thanks to his dedication, he went on to win Gold Gloves and was part of sport organizations in his native Mexico. The sport was the center of his life until a school friend of his lent him a guitar and taught him how to play along some chords. This was the beginning of his interest in music.

Apart from this, he learned that his grandmother was an opera singer in her youth, which increased his desire to start experimenting with music and focused entirely on it, to the point that he applied the same discipline as with boxing at the time.

Gabriel then decided it was time to be academically trained in what would become his new passion, so he took a degree in jazz and a subsequent master’s degree in Afro-Latin music. This is interesting because he did not grow up with these genres and had not heard them before, so studying them was something new for the artist. And of course, he did not know changüí either.

The Cuban Tres

Let us remember that Gabriel was a guitarist and jazz player and his initial training was based on this, but that changed as he got to know Cuban rhythms and salsa itself. Something that caught his attention is that salsa hardly ever uses the guitar, until one day he heard a son montuno record with something very similar to a guitar, but it was not one. It was a Cuban tres.

When he realized that the tres was the root of all this type of music, he set himself to learning to play it and bought one. To help himself, he began listening to artists and groups such as Buena Vista Social Club and the famous tres player Pancho Amat, who was the one Gabriel became interested in the Cuban tres for.

Then, a friend told him that, if he wanted to know the roots of this instrument, he had to study changüí. The problem was that, at that time, there was very little information about this genre, so it became much more difficult for him to learn about it. The only thing he had was a record by the most famous changüí group, whose name was Changüí Majadero.

There was so little Gabriel could know about changüí that he met Cubans born and raised outside Guantánamo who did not know it, since it came from very rural areas. For the same reason, changüí was unable to reach the big cities like Havana, where most foreign tourists went.

Given that there was only little information available on changüí, Gabriel chose to do part of his master’s degree in Guantánamo and that is when he finally got to know this genre for real. He also had the opportunity to make friends with changüí teachers, who helped him a lot to understand it, including the founder of the group Changüí Guantánamo.

Changüí Majadero

After returning to Los Angeles with all the information he collected in Guantánamo, he began recording videos for YouTube playing the original changüí and its typical instruments. Alfredo Ortiz, a very popular salsa percussionist in Los Angeles and member of the orchestra Son Mayor, saw these videos and immediately contacted Gabriel to invite him to play with his group. Subsequently, they all decided to form a new group based on this not so well known genre.

Gabriel explains that he and the other members decided to call the group ChangüÍ Majadero because it was relegated to being heard only by poor farmers in Cuba, so the wealthy people from the big cities referred to ChangüÍ in a derogatory sense as ”música majadera” (music for uneducated and poor people).

The guantanameros who played changüÍ started using the word ”majadero” in their lyrics, but to refer to how proud they were about their roots and this genre. This fact made Gabriel and the other musicians choose to use ”changüí majadero” as the name for their group.

Fortunately, this situation has changed over time thanks to those who have been interested in making changüí known to the rest of Cuba and the world. After many years of work, it has become much more popular and well respected compared to other times, but it is still not enough. In the words of Gabriel, it is necessary to pursue efforts to make this traditional and folkloric genre more relevant every day.

Pupy Pedroso An Ambassador of Cuban Music in the World

Latin America / Cuba / La Habana

When we talk about the beautiful island of Cuba, it is impossible not to automatically think of its rich and ancient musical culture. We are talking about a small piece of land in the world, of that long Caribbean, but it is full of the most successful musicians of Cuba. the history of Latin rhythms.

It all lies in the Spanish and African influences that came to the Island hundreds of years ago, that race that was created from the strings and the drum, from the white and the black, from singing and dancing.

On this occasion I feel very proud to be able to speak directly with a cultural ambassador, recently appointed by the Latin Institute of Music, the leader of those who are are and one of the founders of the very famous Van Van orchestra, the great Cesar Pupy Pedroso, teacher of teachers, as we have called him for this occasion.

Good morning maestro, thank you in advance for the time you give us to all the readers of the International Salsa Magazzine and the portal www. salsamundi.com.

“Well, here I am very happy to be able to talk a little with you and grateful that you want to talk about this server”

Maestro with 19 years of foundation with Pupy and those who are maestro, tell us how the idea of founding this great orchestra was born after making the whole world dance with the Van Van.

“The idea for the project ‘’Los que Son Son’’ arose from a recording I made (while in Los Van Van) with songs of my authorship performed by an internationally renowned performer. (Omara Portuondo, Rolo Martínez, Xiomara Laugart, Raúl Planas, Caridad Cuervo, Pedro Calvo, Raúl Planas etc…etc..) From that moment on I got the idea of making another album with other performers, with a German publisher, and The album was called César Pedroso y Los que Son.

There came a time when I was on tour with Van Van and the dancers came with the records, so I could sign them, and it was then that the idea came to me of forming an orchestra and leaving Van Van and calling it ‘Los que Son Son’. . ”

Why Pianist?

“In my house when I was born there was already a piano, my father was a pianist, and children always want to be like their parents, and I was not going to be the exception, regardless of the fact that I liked the piano since I was little.”

What theme do you consider the flag of Pupy Pedroso’s new journey? When your orchestra opens

“Themes of the new transit: themes like ”What are the things in life” ””A crazy man with a motorcycle” ”Mommy behave well”, ”They’re calling me” and of course ”Six weeks “”

Tell us the story of the musical piece “De la timba a Pogolotti” does it tell us about a change in your life?

“From Timba to Pogolotti: It arises from a piano solo that I did in ”Sandunguera” and Pedrito Calvo identified me, as ”Pupy the sandunguero of Pogolotti” and the neighbors of La Timba (neighborhood where I I was born) they asked my older relatives why they said about Pogolotti, if I was born in La Timba, then I wanted to be okay with the two neighborhoods, when I made ”Los que Son…”

Well, I made that song in honor of the two neighborhoods, because I was born in La Timba, but I grew up in Pogolotti, and all my childhood friends are from Pogolotti, I don’t have friends in La Timba, and I consider that one is from where one is from. upbringing, not where he was born, because all the customs, friendships, first ”girlfriend” were Pogolotti’s.”

Which song is your favorite from Van Van’s golden era?

“If you talk to me about the songs from Van Van’s golden age, there are several, of mine the authorship of Maestro Formell and others of mine, for example of the maestro, there are several, “My doubts” ”Marilu”” The Painful” ”There are women” ”I’m everything” and one of mine: ”Six weeks “Sugar” ”The Negro is cooking” ”It must be over” ”That’s good ”, among many others, we live in a wonderful time”

Since August 2018, he was named Cultural Ambassador by the Latin Music Institute. Do you consider it an achievement or a new commitment?

“I consider both things, an achievement because it is not easy in a country with so much talent and so many performers to take me into account for said recognition, and at the same time a commitment, because I am obliged not to let my musical guard down in any way.” sense.”

Maestro comes from a family of great musicians, his grandfather a director, his father a pianist, both from great Cuban orchestras. Can we say that being a musician in your family comes in your blood? Is it inherited in the genes?

“Yes, sir, I am grateful for having been born in this family where there was so much musical talent, where only music was breathed, my autistic grandfather, director of an orchestra called ”Cuba”, my uncle a percussionist in an orchestra very famous for that ”Arcaño y sus Maravillas” era, and I believe a lot in the musical heritage because I consider myself a product of it.

As a pianist, it is because my fundamental patron was my father, from whom I copied and learned a lot from what I could discreetly practice and as a conductor, because I had the joy of having worked with different directors, Rolando Valdés, Enrrique Pérez, I assisted in substituting for my father and the ones I spent the longest time with, Elio Revé and Juan Formell, I spent 6 years with Revé and 32 with Formell and I learned a lot with both directors, I was lucky.”

To what do you owe your great success as a pianist and conductor?

“I think that to be good at any career, the fundamental thing is that you like it and have the aptitude for it, I think that music does not escape from that rule, because you can like it, but if you don’t have the aptitude, don’t waste your time, and Maybe if you have aptitude and you don’t like it, over time you may like it and fall in love with it, so aptitude is the fundamental thing.”

What is your greatest reference or influence in music?

“My greatest influence is Son, I love Son, rumba, guaguancó, Cuban music and Brazilian music, jazz, but my greatest influence is Son.”

Currently, how do you see timba within the island of Cuba? Minimized by Cubaton or leader of local rhythms?

“I believe that at all times, there have been different musical genres, which have been in the preference of the dancer, in the era of Rock and Roll they danced with Elvis Presly, with Bill Halle and his comets, with Little Richard, but also they danced with Aragón, Benny Moré, Sonora Matancera, among others,…

but today the balance leans more towards these foreign movements, good and bad, and that is happening all over the world, in the dance area, but I do not consider our dance music critical or dead, because there is taste for everything and every time “A convening orchestra performs on an open-air stage, it overflows with audiences, that means we are in battle, and the country that has the most musicians making a living from music is Cuba.”

Tell us about the 2019 projects? New CD? Tours?

“Fundamentally starting the next album, the release of a documentary of a tour we are doing in Cuba and some presentations abroad, to reappear again at the end of the year in Europe, with one of the dance hits from France:

”Having a good time”, I make a parenthesis, clarify that there are countries where our music prevails (El Son, La Timba, La Salsa) like Peru and Colombia, Cuban rhythms are still in fashion, thanks to many musicians and orchestras that make a great job for the dissemination, to the printed media and now the digital wave that quite develops our work, look, you are an example of this, we hope to continue giving our audience reasons to dance.

In August we return to South America, it is the tour we are most looking forward to, the Latin public is one of the best, we think about stopping in August in Colombia, Ecuador and Peru, in the same way we are now planning to organize the calendar, for businessmen or producers who wish to have us in their cities, must contact our direct representatives, talking to them is like talking to Pupy”

What should a producer do to have them in their Latin American projects?

“No compadre, very simple, contact them at these numbers +573022582306 and +51992630351, they are the only ones authorized to market our tour, we want to be in all the cities of Latin America.”

Grateful teacher for your time and for letting us get to know you a little, may the successes continue for what they are.

“Grateful to you, thank you for the dissemination you make of the popular dance music of my island.

It remains to leave you the social media links of such an important orchestra so that you can follow in its footsteps and find out about the development of the successes of this great band, on Facebook:
