“LA CHARANGA IS MY FAVORITE MUSIC… … IT’S VERY NICE AND LIGHT… … AND IT IS THE TYPICAL MUSIC OF CUBA.” Hansel E. Martínez

Pablo Padin born in Manhattan, New York I grew up with a pair of Timbales at home

I was born in Manhattan, New York on December 1, 1969. My parents Pablo and Haydee Padin moved from Puerto Rico to New York in 1968. My father played Timbales with local salsa groups at the time, so I grew up with a pair of Timbales at home. My father started teaching me how to play at a very young age. We moved to LA. , California in 1978 and I started playing drums in the school band and in the community drill teams as well.

I got my first private drum set lesson at the age of 9 at a music school in Hollywood California. At the age of 15, I started playing my first steady gig in a salsa band with my father at a nightclub in Marina Del Rey, California. In 1989 we moved to Puerto Rico so I started studying music at the Interamerican University in San German, PR. At the university I studied with the musicians that were playing with all the big salsa and merengue groups of that time. So at that point in time I started playing with famous salsa singers such as Roberto Lugo, Nino Segarra, Hector Tricoche, Domingo QuiĂąones and Johnny Rivera. International Salsa Magazine

USA / New York / New York

At the same time I started doing studio work as well. In 1996 I got the call to play with Gilberto SantaRosa and did that gig for 15 years. It was with Gilberto that I hooked up with piano player, arranger and producer Jose Lugo. Jose started using me on all of his studio productions. I have won 6 Latin Grammys and 2 American Grammys on recordings and productions of artists such as: Millie Quezada, Elvis Crespo, Grupo Mania, Gilberto SantaRosa and Tito El Bambino.

To this date I’ve been working with Jose Lugo’s Guasabara Combo, in which our first cd was nominated for the Latin Grammy.

International Salsa Magazine

At that point in my career I started recording and playing concerts with artist such as Puerto Rican Power, Pedro Brull, Yomo Toro & Willie Colón, Andy Montañez, Ismael Miranda, Tito Nieves, Cheo Feliciano, Rafael De Jesus, Richie Ray & Bobby Cruz, Bobby Valentín, Marvin Santiago, Cano Estremera, Victor Manuelle, Ruben Blades, Ray De La Paz, Jose Alberto ”El Canario” Lalo Rodriguez, Truko Y Zaperoko, DLG, Isaac Delgado, Herman Oliveras, Edwin Colón Zayas and many others.

We are working on our third cd now that will include two original compositions of mine. I’m super exited, humbled and thankful for all the great experiences that I’ve lived and for the ones that are yet to come, Thank You God!!!!!

Arturo “Chico” O'farrill “The Afro-Cuban Jazz Architect”

Arturo O'Farrill or better known as “Chico” O'Farrill was born in Havana (Cuba) on October 28, 1921. He was the son of a recognized Jewish family whose father was an eminent lawyer whom one day decided to immigrate to the United States. Arturo undertook his studies at the Riverside Military School in Gainesville, Georgia (interned by his father). He began to love the jazz orchestras (big bands) and within that environment he fed musically, listening to recordings of Benny Goodman, Artie Shaw, Glenn Miller, and Tommy Dorsey, so much, that in a brief time he learned to plays the trumpet and became the trumpet player of the military band as well as the several dance groups. Years later, Chico returned to Cuba. He studied law and at the same time

and at the same time developed his facet as a composer, receiving a composition and harmony study with the master, Félix Guerrero. Likewise, he was also Armando Romeu Bellamar Orchestra’s member and the Isidro Pérez Orchestra, when the Son and the Mambo prevailed in the Latin music.

International Salsa Magazine

USA / New York / New York

Mexico and Europe as a trumpeter musician as well as he created the band, Los Raqueteros del Swing, being the director and trumpet. Subsequently, he founded Los Beboppers (the first group of Cuban bop), which was presented at the Saratoga Hotel with Chico again as the director and the trumpet. In the ‘50s decade began the successes for Chico as an arranger, working briefly for several orchestra directors, such as Gil Fuller, Noro Morales, Frank "Machito" Grillo, and Benny Goodman.

TRAJECTORY

From 1943 to 1947 “The Afro-Cuban Jazz Architect” worked at the cabaret Montmartre. He was a member of Bellamar Orchestra, directed by Armando Romeu and integrated by Luis and Pucho Escalante, Gustavo Mas and Mario Romeu, among others. He traveled to 10

International Salsa Magazine

In the same way, he composed his first great masterpiece "Afro-Cuban Jazz Suite" in five movements: Song, Mambo, 6/8, Jazz and Rumba Open. This masterpiece was made and recorded for the businessman Norman Granz’s label, using the Machito's Orchestra as an accompanist and rhythmic base.

USA / New York / New York

"Afro-Cuban Jazz Suite", according to Luc Delannoy: “begins and ends with a hypnotic flute and conga duo that reflects the essence of Cuban treatment; the union of musical universes: the European (the flute) and the African (the conga). To these two instruments is joined the oboe, followed by the trumpets, saxophones and the “Tumbao” of the double bass… After a return to swing and bebop in the fourth movement, Chico takes us to the origins of Latin jazz with a melody of clear Arabic accents, before sinking back into the universe of Afro-Cuban percussions”. Likewise, for Benny Carter, this Suite was: “The reason for the coherence of the rhythmic parts and their relationships with the solos that have their own life and independence, Masterpiece of a genius.” In New York and following the success of "Afro Cuban Jazz Suite", O'Farrill writes "Cuban Fantasy" for Stan Kenton, who later changes its name to "Cuban Episode". In 1953 he traveled to California, where he founded his orchestra that included renowned musicians such as Mario

Bauzá, Doug Mettome, Jimmy Nottingham, Eddie Bert, Fred Zito, Lenny Hambro, Flip Phillips, and saxophonist Eddie Wasserman. The orchestra used the rhythm section of the Machito’s Afro-Cuban, harp and oboe. With this concept he recorded for Norman Granz, performed in Birdland (New York), and the Hat Ballroom located in Los Angeles. In this period he composed three new movements: “La Jungla”, “Contraste”, and “Rhumba Finale”, baptized as "Manteca Suite" recorded with the Jazz player Dizzy Gillespie and orchestra of 21 excellent musicians in 1954. He returns to Cuba again in 1956 to be inspired and immediately began working for the best record companies on the island such as Panart and RCA Víctor, recording "Chico's Cha-Cha-Cha", adapting the Charanga rhythm to the big band format. This album is released, one more time, on compact disc by BMG during the last decade of the twentieth century. Chico also made a recording for the popular D’Aida Quartet and arrangements for Bola de Nieve and the famous Orchestra Director, Aldemaro Romero. In 1958 the restless O’Farrill moved for Mexico, an essential platform for all Latin American musicians at that time. There he returned to create another special sound and appears on television as musical director of the Andy Russell singer, and there his life changed radically. He started a semi-retirement period, but never stopped creating music. At that moment, he composed his famous International Salsa Magazine

stopped being exclusively for the ballroom and -of course- "new sound" icons appeared in the Jazz Music. For this reason, Chico O'Farrill begins working in the lucrative field of music for television commercials. In the mid-1990s, “The Afro-Cuban Jazz Architect” was contacted by American producer and Jazz director Todd Barkan with Pure Emotion, a compiled of his musical career with which he got a nomination for the 37th edition of the Grammy awards.

“Azteca Suite” for trumpeter Art Farmer, and he made history again! In the 60s he returned to New York and makes arrangements for such important figures as La Lupe (They Call Me La Lupe); Cal Tjader (Along Comes Cal); Clark Terry (Spanish Rice); Count Basie (High Voltage); Gato Barbieri (Chapter Three: Viva Emiliano Zapata); Ringo Starr (Night and Day) and dabbled in the Rock music with David Bowie (I Know It's Gonna Happen, Looking for Lester), and finally he was director of the Aldemaro Romero´s Orchestra. This stage extends until the end of the 20th century, although already in the 70s, the big bands go down in history for several genres that would be manifested due to their novelty and immense popularity in the United States and around the world. The architects of the new fashion used new techniques, styles, and sounds, especially in the field of harmonization. Suddenly popular music 12

International Salsa Magazine

O’Farrill toured Europe with his orchestra in 1996 and recorded his latest album titled "Heart Of A Legend", which contains 14 tracks, a formidable orchestra of 18 masters and a staff of international artists. The arrangements of "Heart Of A Legend", considered for many as the best album of his career, took care by himself and the musical direction was entrusted to his son, Arturo O'Farrill Jr., a formidable pianist and heir of his legacy. Arturo “Chico” O’farrill died on June 29, 2001, in New York City at 80 years. Undeniably, Chico for more than half a century was a great musical creator. He was at the forefront of an innovative style that many know as Latin Jazz nowadays, which was called at the beginning with many names, such as Cuban bop, Mambo Jazz and Afro-Cuban Jazz.

Our dear “AFRO-CUBAN JAZZ ARCHITECT" Until forever! In memory of 18 years of his passing!

SONEROS BIRTHDAYS PARTY

Omara Portuondo, Ismael Rivera, Jimmy Bosch, and Luisito Carrión celebrate their birthdays this month October is filled with talent and it’s that in this month a hurricane of brilliant artists of the Salsero genre was born, who have captivated us and have shown their Gift before hundreds of audiences around the world. These Latin Stars have bathed us in

SABOR with their lyrics and infected with joy with their melodies. It for that, this month we celebrate their births and dance to the rhythm of the applause towards them. Happy Birthday, Soneros!

OMARA PORTUONDO (OCTOBER 29, 1930) Omara was born in La Habana (Cuba). Her first encounter with music was at a very early age. Just as in any other Cuban home, the future singer and her siblings grew up with the songs which her parents, for lack of a gramophone, sang to them. Those melodies, some of which

International Salsa Magazine

still form part of her repertoire, were young Omara’s informal introduction to the world of music. She and her sister Haydee sang well-known American group “Los Loquibambla” and their style, a Cubanised version

of the Bossa Nova with touches of American jazz, was known as “Feeling”. In their radio debut, Omara was introduced as “Miss Omara Brown, the girlfriend of Feeling”. “Magia Negra” was her debut record released in 1959. It combined Cuban

music with American jazz and included versions of “That Old Black Magic” and “Caravan”, by Duke Ellington. Later she joined one of Cuba’s most important orchestras, La Orchestra Aragón, with which she recorded several albums, such as the one she did with Adalberto Álvarez in 1984 and “Palabras and Desafíos” on which she was accompanied by Chucho Valdés. However, Omara Portuondo catapulted to her well-earned fame was in the mid-1990s when she collaborated in the recording sessions for Buena Vista Social Club on which she sang “Veinte Años”. She was the star of the third launching of the Buena Vista Social Club released in 2000 and she toured Europe, traveled to Japan, and performed in the USA and Canada. Omara went back to the studio to record her second solo album “Flor de Amor” (World Circuit), which was

produced by Nick Gold and Alê Siqueira, signals a change in direction in her career: it is an album marked by a more subtle sound and a richness of texture. Portuondo brought in a mixture of Cuban and Brazilian musicians for this album, and it is this factor which influences the particular style of the music. Omara returned to Europe in 2004 to promote this album, performing at such illustrious venues as the North Sea Jazz Festival, Marble Hill House in London, Olympia in Paris and the Concertgebouw in Amsterdam. “Flor de Amor” was nominated for a Grammy in the Best Traditional Tropical Record category and the 16th edition of the Billboard Latin Music Awards (2005); this album obtained the Tropical Record of the Year award. Later, Omara released “Gracias”, the record that marks her sixtieth year in the music business and won the Latin Grammy Award for the Best Contemporary Tropical

Album. It was a very special night as Omara was there to receive the prize in person and she also presented one of the awards, the first time that a Cuban artist has done this. The album was also later nominated for a Grammy in the Best Tropical Latin Album category. After touring with the Orquesta Buena Vista Social Club in Europe during 2010, “the girlfriend of Feeling” released the latest recording, Omara & Chucho (Montuno Producciones) in spring 2011. 14 years after their last joint album, they reunite once again to continue unravelling the thread of their first joint project, and show us their talents in the simplest, most unclad manner on a context that enables them to lay emphasis on some of the features that been characteristic of their music at various stages in their careers. Omara will also tour with the Orquesta Buena Vista Social Club later in Europe and the U.S. International Salsa Magazine

ISMAEL RIVERA (OCTOBER 5, 1931 – MAY 13, 1987) Puerto Rican singer and songwriter contributed to the dissemination of the island's native rhythms such as the Bomba and Plena, and he was one of the first standard-bearers of the Salsero movement of the decade, the reason for he was called “El Sonero Mayor” and also known for others by the nickname "Maelo".

Ismael Rivera's triumphant career was interrupted in 1962 for paying four

years under the laws of Puerto Rico for possession of narcotics. Then, after recovering his freedom, Ismael formed his musical ensemble “Los Cachimbos” and immersed himself in the nascent Salsero movement to which he contributed two classics such as “Dime por qué” y “Mi negrita me espera”. 18

LA CANDELA SALSA ORCHESTRA De Tenerife Islas Canarias para el Mundo LA BANDA La Candela es una joven orquesta independiente que en muy poco tiempo se ha hecho un hueco entre las preferencias de los bailadores de salsa. Nuestra propuesta va encaminada a “enganchar“ al bailador con los ritmos primigenios de la salsa como el son montuno, el

afincados en Tenerife (Canarias) entre los que se mezclan la juventud y la veteranía. Algunos ya han formado parte de bandas de planta y compartido escenario con figuras internacionales, como Tito Nieves, Tony Vega, Adalberto Santiago, Cheo Feliciano, Luisito Carrión, Manolito Simonet, Pedro Brull, etc. Nuestra intención es, sobre todo, hacer disfrutar a la gente de la manera más directa posible, y esto sólo se consigue con la música en vivo. Nuestro público objetivo es el bailador de salsa on1 & on2, gran consumidor de este tipo de música. Por ello estamos poniendo todo

nuestro empeño para llegar a los diferentes festivales y congresos de salsa que se celebran por todo el mundo y en cualquier época del año.

NUESTRA MÚSICA El estilo de La Candela está inspirado en el repertorio y estilo de ejecución del maestro Joe Cuba y su Sexteto. Hemos intentado devolver a la vida algunos de sus mejores temas clásicos que hoy en día siguen siendo una referencia para el bailador. Con este espíritu nació nuestro primer proyecto musical: On Fire, que vió la luz en noviembre del año 2015 y que creemos que ha sido una muy

En el álbum se incluyen algunos temas clásicos del maestro Joe Cuba, como “La Palomilla”, “Clave Mambo” o “El Ritmo de Joe Cuba”, junto con temas de autoría propia como nuestros dos primeros singles, titulados “Es Guaguancó” y “Para Ella”. En 2017 y gracias a la producción ejecutiva de Batlei Productions, nace un nuevo proyecto de La Candela con un sonido más cercano y con muchas novedades, sin dejar atrás nuestra esencia, encabezado por el primer single titulado “Se Prendió”. On Time se mueve entre lo primitivo y lo nuevo, rescatando joyas y brindando merecidos homenajes a algunos de los grandes precursores de la música afrocubana bailable, como fueron Tito Rodriguez o Frank Grillo “Machito.

Porque lo que importa es la música y su única y gran protagonista ¨LA SALSA¨ Todo un universo de individuos felices y unidos por la melodía, y todo esto sucede porque LA SALSA está tatuada en los corazones de muchos caleños y visitantes de la zona que se hace evidente en la pista de La Topa, en donde se puede encontrar ese público salsero visitante de todas partes del mundo que baila de manera profesional, también están los que bailan bien y los que no bailan, pero que importa un “bledo” ósea ¨nada¨. Los que se pican o se guillan de bailarines, los que van en sandalias, los que van con tenis, los que van con tacones, los que van elegantes, los que van relajados, los rastas de cabello largo, los de afros, el señor y la señora, los pollos, los ciclistas urbanos y hasta los rockeros…Y la lista es infinita porque lo que importa es la música y su única y gran protagonista ¨LA SALSA¨. International Salsa Magazine

La Topa Tolondra & su Salsa con Criterio ¨ Un lugar mágico en un singular espacio de Santiago de Cali ¨

entre los años 50 y 70, donde la Salsa conforma el cuerpo y el bolero su espíritu, y adentrándonos un poco más también se percibe energías incluyentes. ¨Divertirse es el único requisito para asistir¨ ¨El Ambiente¨ Para una noche inolvidable se necesitan dos mitades. La primera es una mesa, sillas, agua y tragos. Y la segunda, y quizás la más importante: música y golpe. ¨Sin límites de edad asisten semanalmente los amantes de la Salsa y de los románticos del Bolero¨ Al ritmo de la Charanga, la Pachanga, el Boogaloo, la Guajira y el Son Cubano se disfruta todas las noches en la Topa Tolondra. Pasa algo singular en ese mágico lugar y es que todo el mundo se olvida del que dirán y se la gozan de principio a fin. Además constantemente se presentan artistas locales e internacionales tales como: Esteban Copete y su Kintelo Pacifico, Habana con Cola, Los Hermanos Lebrón,Clandestina Orquesta, Africali, Ebano y Marfil, Bailatino, La Negramenta, Bobby Valentín y entre otros. Para las fechas especiales se organizan fiestas y eventos como Halloween que ya se aproxima. En ¨La Topa¨ como ya es conocida en Cali retumban sonoridades que llegaron a la ciudad 40

International Salsa Magazine

En la Topa Tolondra sobra espacio para la gozadera, para sentarse, para brindar. El tiempo no corre y no hay descache… ¨La Música¨ Aquí se casan con la vieja guardia de Los Hermanos Lebrón, Ángel Canales, La Sonora Ponceña, Frankie Dante y La Flamboyán. La curaduría de su dueño Carlos Ospina, su disc-jockey y propietario, es para aprendérselo. Para nada se trata de impresionar, se trata de saber dar con el tema en el momento oportuno.

LatinAmerica / Colombia / Cali

¨Variedad¨ Los lunes son para extranjeros. Los martes hay espacio de cine-foro y clases aparte que incluye con la promoción de 3 por 1 (por cada 3 canciones de Salsa, una de bolero). Los miércoles se encuentran los mejores bailarines de la ciudad, los jueves se destinan a la salsa en vivo. Finalmente, los viernes y sábados se reservan para fiestas tradicionales de la Topa. ¨A Muchos Grados¨ Si su cabello es largo, lleve con qué recogerlo. Si va con camisa manga larga, remánguesela. Si es de las personas que no acostumbra a consumir agua, prepárese para beber lo que no se ha tomado en un año.

En La Topa se siente el calor duro, por lo que es necesario establecer pausas para salir a la calle a refrescarse ¨el calor de afuera le va a parecer fresco¨. Para la noche redonda la combinación ideal es cerveza, aguardiente y agua, en sorbos dosificados. ¿La temperatura agota? Sí, pero poco importa si la canción que está sonando toca sus fibras y llega al corazón. Si no conoce La Topa Tolondra, no deje de ir y si antes de visitar quiere hacerse una idea más clara visite su fan page en Facebook www.facebook.com/Latopabar pero no se quede con la intriga!

se reúnen los brasileños y turistas para poder bailar y ver los grandiosos festivales ofrecidos por las distintas academias de baile y/o estudios de samba donde la evaluación de cada uno dependerá del ritmo, la participación, vestuario y la originalidad del desfile.

El baile que despierta el Carnaval en Brasil “La Samba” Los carnavales a pesar que son conocidos a nivel mundial por los disfraces y fiestas, ninguna es tan buena como el carnaval que se realiza en Brasil, Rio de Janeiro en especial en el Sambódromo conocido por ser uno de los mayores espacios al aire libre de la ciudad donde uno puede realizar grande eventos. El Carnaval de Brasil o el Carnaval Carioca es un grandioso evento donde 48

La Samba es la música nacional de Brasil, que tienen origen afro-brasileño de 2 por 4 tiempos pero el inicio fue específicamente en Angola antes de llegar a Brasil; actualmente tiene un estilo que actualmente ha recibido muchas fusiones y es muy variado. Para aprender a bailarlo uno comienza con el movimiento básico progresivo que consiste en el paso básico normal y el básico lateral (izquierda y derecha, frente y atrás), luego el paso whisk que consiste en la variación del paso básico lateral y en lugar de llevar el otro pie junto al pie que guía, lo llevarás hacia atrás si quieres conocer todos lo destalles de este paso visita la siguiente página (https://es.wikihow.com/bailar-samba ), el siguiente paso es la caminata estacionaria de samba donde la persona que la realiza en posición cerrada sosteniendo a la pareja con ambas manos, a diferencia de la posición explicada al inicio; los brazos deben estar extendidos. El líder tendrá la pierna izquierda extendida detrás

LatinAmerica / Brasil / Rio de Janeiro

de él, mientras que el seguidor tendrá la misma posición pero con la derecha atrás, la pierna interior será la que le estabilice e esta forma la pareja no se desplazará y se quedará en un solo lugar. La caminata de samba es el desplazamiento que se realiza de una manera muy similar a la estacionaria, pero en posición de paseo; es muy parecida a la cerrada, pero forma una “V” abierta; el costado izquierdo del líder y el derecho del seguidor deben estar ligeramente volteados hacia afuera de forma que los costados opuestos de ambos estén próximos. Para realizar

este movimiento, comienza con la pierna exterior, en diagonal, detrás de la interior estabilizadora. Uno de los secretos para que el movimiento refleje la esencia de esta música es el “rebote” entre un paso y otro, debe existir una transición fluida que comprometa todo el cuerpo y para lograrlo es posible pensar que estamos constantemente pisando diferentes objetos que aparecen en nuestro camino y que rápidamente intentamos levantar el pie para no romperlos. Es muy importante que este rebote se exprese con todo el cuerpo, y no sólo con las piernas.

Entre las recomendaciones para realizar un efectivo y grandioso baile es la concentración y ver hacia adelante sobre los hombros de su pareja. Entre los tantos beneficios que dan los bailes, la Samba tiene ciertos privilegios no solo a nivel físico sino a nivel psicológico • A nivel físico: * Fortalece las piernas, ya que las tonifica ya que los movimientos son muy rápidos y seguidos. * Vientre plano, ya que en el baile deben tener los abdominales contraídos y el cuerpo estirado. * Estiliza la cadera por los extensos movimientos. • A nivel psicológico: libera estrés ya que la persona hace deporte al practicarlo, de tal forma que ayuda al cuerpo a liberar tensiones dando como resultado diversión y relajación. Ahora que conocemos más sobre la samba y su influencia sobre el carnaval a nivel

internacional podemos decir que es un solo estilo? Pues no… ¿Sabías que el “Carnaval” se diferencia en las diferentes formas en que se realiza o se desarrolla en cada ciudad? Es cierto que hay muchos rasgos en común, como sus orígenes y motivaciones. Una de las características más atractivas en Brasil es que se desarrolla al aire libre, lo que hace que el visitante tenga una participación más activa a un costo más bajo y puede bailar y disfrutar de los espectáculos y/o shows que hay en las marchas realizadas por las academias con sus bailarinas luciendo sus mejores trajes y pasos de Samba al igual que los carros alegóricos y también el público

puede disfrutar y ver de los tríos eléctricos (son grupos musicales que recorren la ciudad en camiones equipados tocar música) en las fiestas callejeras de Rio; y no solo en “Rio” se celebra sino se puede encontrar en Recife y Olinda, en Salvador de Bahía, la ciudad en donde nació el Samba - Florianópolis, entre otras. Estas ciudades cuentan con una belleza arquitectónica que seduce al visitante y le transporta históricamente a tanto a nivel histórico como cultural.
