Paris, May 2002
Orlando "Maraca" Valle, the young and highly talented Cuban flautist, composer and arranger is back with a wonderful new album "Tremenda Rumba" ('what a rocking party !' for those not familiar with the term). A musical work of art and pictorial collaboration with Cuban painter Salvador Gonzalez. Over in Paris for a memorable concert just before leaving for a tour in the States, we caught up to find out more about this unique working relationship between music and art.
All extracts taken from "Tremenda Rumba" his latest album released by Warner Jazz.
