We are there every Thursday night at 9:30 p.m.

    Quote from the program:
    “This two-time Grammy-nominated timba band from Cuba delivers high-energy party music with rapid-fire lyrics, timba rhythms, and a full horn section – irresistibly danceable! “Their new CD, Bach in Havana, blends Bach melodies from pieces such as the Mass in B Minor and the Well-Tempered Clavier with infectious Cuban rhythms including the cha-cha-cha, the son and the danzon.” (NPR Music) “

    Hi Everyone,
    I am very interested in hiring a traditional Cuban trio or quartet for our upcoming wedding (June 23rd/2010) in Mississauga. We are looking for a group to play for about 2-3 hours at the reception as people arrive and during dinner.

    I don’t where to start, but I am very interested to hearing people’s suggestions. Thanks so much in advance. I want to bring the flavor of Cuba that I love so much to our special event.

New website at http://www.perrosalvajemusica.com Anyone interested in bringing them to Toronto for a show? They’ve never been outide of Cuba.

    Hi!!
    I’m going to Cuba in two weeks and I was hoping that someone could tell me where the party is on tuesday night in Havana?
    I don’t want to waste a night going from place to place to figure it out so if someone could give me a few options of what clubs are good, I would REALLY appreciate it!
    Also.. if you have ANY word on Charanga being somewhere/ANYWHERE in Havana during the last week of March – PLEASE POST IT!!!! Thank you!
    I’m going to see them when they come to Toronto in April, but nothing would beat seeing them in their own home!
    THANK YOU for any help!
    Besos.

      Hi Silvana… the scene changes a lot in Havana.

      Havana is a step back in time compared to the rest of the world. There was a time when in North America 50-60 years back, when only the few with money to burn regularly go to clubs to dance. Still the best parties for most Cubans, are house parties and street parties.

      But the tourists, and the locals with money, do party any night in Havana. Yemaya from Australia is the best info source.

      When I was there a few years in a row… Tuesday was the most awkward night of the week to find out what’s happening at most of the clubs, including Casa de la Musica downtown and Miramar. It was basically the first night of the week and negotation was still in progress, I had to actually go to the clubs in the afternoon and hope the schedule was posted for the evening. Or if the matinee was one I wanted to see…

      Check Yemeya’s article for details, but Canal Cubno is one of the longest running info sources,

    Para consultas atraves del Oraculo de Ifa !

    La consulta a través de un babalawo (babalao, Oluo, Olowo, Sacerdote de Ifá) permite conocer que astral vive la persona, determinando la tendencia de la persona durante los 16 días que dura el astral: lograr armomía con el medio circundante o volverse inarmónico espiritualmente.

    La duración del proceso de adivinación es de aproximadamente una hora, no es Tarot, no es Tesomancia, tampoco es videncia, ni cristalmancia ( Adivinacion por medio del cristal), ni onomancia (Adivinacion por medio de las cebollas), ni dactilomancia (Adivinación por anillos),, ni demonomancia (Consiste en la adivinacion mediante la invocación de demonios), ni esciamancia (evocar la sombra de los muertos, y conocer así el futuro. No confundir con nigromancia o psicomancia, en las que se aparecían el alma o el cuerpo del difunto.), ni tampoco la conocida espodomancia ( utilizando las cenizas de los sacrificios) .

    Podríamos describir además muchas otra artes de adivinación, pero sin duda alguna las más conocidas son: la quiromancia (adivinación mediante las manos, lectura de las líneas de las manos), el tarot (en todas sus vertientes, Tarot De Marsella, Tarot Visconti-Sforza, Tarot de Rider Waite, El Tarot de Aliester Crowley), las runas, y la baraja o cartas españolas.

    Dentro de la filosofía yorubà se emplean basicamente los siguientes métodos:

    1.- Obi Abata (4 piezas de coco permiten obtener respuestas muy simples)

    2.- Cowries (caracoles, sistema utilizado por los santeros (iyaloshas, babaloshas))

    3.- Opele (Sistema usado única y exclusivamente por su complejidad y amplitud en la interpretación de sus respuestas por la máxima autoridad en adivinación en la cultura africana animista, el babalawo)

    4.- Inkin (nueces de palma, Sistema usado solamente para las consagraciones religiosas de grado superior (AwoIfakan (Awofaka, Ikofa, Kofa)) y en consultas muy específicas (atefa))

    La diferencia sustancial entre los sistemas adivinatorios usados habitualmente en Norte America es que Ifá es ciencia adivinatoria, el Oráculo interpretado no admite posibilidad de error, las lecturas son simpre Booleanas, binarias, todas las preguntas son respondidas de manera certera y no ambigua, el Babalawo es el encargado de interpretar los sagrados oráculos de los pueblos yorubà.

    La consulta no requiere la presencia física del consultado delante del Olowo .

    Durante la consulta se obtienen una serie de recomendaciones, consejos que brinda Ifá al cliente, siguiendo estos consejos la persona es capaz de modificar su destino, atrayendo la suerte, o alejando la negatividad de su camino.

    El objeto de la consulta no se limita a la simple y recurrente pregunta de la recuperación de pareja, los mal llamados amarres, las limpiezas espirituales, las sanaciones mediante las deidades y las fuerzas naturales, obras de endulzamiento, atracción, hechizos de amor, etc. El objeto de la consulta es reparar el destino del cliente permitiendo que la dicha y las cosas buenas se hagan un lugar en su vida.

    Los términos conjuros, embrujos, pociones mágicas, hechizos, magia negra, magia blanca, brujería, amarres, hechizos, dominación, carecen de validez en esta filosofía, el Leit Motif es determinar las causas que motivan las problemáticas de los individuos, y actuar en consecuencia, no modificamos el destino de las personas de nuestro entorno, sino corregimos el nuestro para acercarnos a la dicha que nos ha preparado Dios desde nuestro nacimiento.

    Las consultas son de 12:30PM a 7:00PM de Lunes a Viernes , solo se consultara los fines de semana en caso de emergencia , el costo de la consulta son ( 60.00 CAN ) una vez obtenido el pago se le dara su sita personalmente con uno de los Oluwos , o se le mandara los datos de la consulta a los que no pueden estar presente . Puede pagar su consulta a travez de PAYPAL la manera mas segura y rapida !

    NOTA : Para mas informacion puede usted comunicarse con el Oluwo al correo
    (bogboaseifa@hotmail.com) o llame al TEL : (416) 786-6446 de 9:00am a 6:00pm de Lunes a viernes , Que Olódùmarè y los Orí?à los bendigan gracias .

    Àború Àboyè Àbosísé .

    Awo ni Òrúnmìlà .

    “Los Quebecos Del Son”….
    Through its ambiance and warm rhythms, “Los Québécos Del Son” will make you discover a music that is inspired in the “pure” Cuban tradition. The septet reproduces for its audience the energy that is found in the cafés of Old Havana, without having to board on a plane. On her return from her journey to Cuba, Rachel Therrien decided to integrate the flavour of traditional Cuban “Son” to her Quebecois culture. She has gone directly to the land where music is the lifeblood of the people to get her influences. The “Los Québécos Del Son” septet is a fine blend of cultures composed of 4 musicians from Quebec and 3 musicians originally from Cuba They all want to present you with music that is sunny and pure “Son”, a traditional Cuban style, precursor to Cuban Salsa, has never ceased to exist and continues to evolve. For this reason, “Los Quebecos Del Son” has as a goal to allow this style to evolve through our Nordic culture

    « Los Quebecos Del Son »
    and its repertoire of Traditional Cuban « Son » music
    will make you travel to the heart of Havana!!!

    Site Myspace Rachel Trumpet – correction texte anglais.
    Hello, my name is Rachel. As you can see, I play trumpet.

    The thing that I prefer the most in life is to Blow my horn! I’m studying right now in jazz interpretation at University of Montreal with the trumpet player Ron DiLauro.
    I also passed 9 months in Cubastudying with great Cuban musicians such as: Chappotin, Yasek Manzano, Gorge Rubio,Emilio Del Monte and Robertico Garcia. And I played there with the afro-cuban jazz band of Rember Duharte in jazz festival of Havana, Cuban TV channels and normal shows.

    I try to make my living out of Music by playing with artists or in bands :
    Namori (www.namori.com), Tierra, Salam, Swing Connection House Band, Broken Nails, Bombolesse, Sylvie Chenard “Jazz Amerique”

    I also do some studio recordings, teaching, and arranging. I enjoy traveling, learning new grooves and having great moments with new people like I just did with an afro beat band From New York named Kokolo (www.kolokoonline.com).

    What I enjoy the most is to live new experiences like I did in the past years. With the University Big Band, I played with renowned artists like Michel Legrand, Klimax, Jean-Pierre Zanella, Ginette Reno, Oliver Jones, Remi Bolduc, and we had the experience of playing at the IAJE Jazz conference in 2008

    I participated in a collective Band, Gogo Jungle, and some of you know that it is not easy to organise a new band, book shows, make a band known and everything else to make a band successful. This was not always happy, but I learned a lot with this 4 year experience !

    For the next few years, I’ll Concentrate on studying and practicing and playing with as many people as possible and eventually maybe start my own band… we’ll see !

    I supply donated racing bicycles to a small kid’s cycling team in Banes Cuba, near Holguin. I rely on donated bicycles and equipment. To date I have equipped the team with 7 bikes and equipment. I have more bikes ready to send there and I need help getting them from Toronto to Cuba. I box all the bikes for shipment and the airlines take these as regular sporting goods luggage without any problems. I handle any extra costs. I am looking for people flying from Toronto to Holguin that can take a bike or two with them. It’s a simple process as we have the team coach pick the bikes up at the resort. I can be contacted at 416-937-0095 or jeffsreid@rogers.com

    Hi there,
    We have had a couple of fabulous vacations in Cuba. Lovely country, lovely people. We immigrated from Hungary 24 years ago, we have learned about Cuba. We have a lot of respect for Cuban people.
    We met a lady at the airport in Varadero. Since she wrote to us and she is asking us for sponsorship for her to come to Canada to work. She is teaching dancing, english, speaks more languages. She sent us her resume. We are not in the position to offer sponsorship to her. Would you see any way in the Cuban community to find some help? I could send you her resume.

    Please contact us with your ideas:

    @Steve Ungar
    Good sentiments Steve, but I wouldn’t expect much result this time.

    You will meet many Cubans over the years who want to be sponsored… some will find someone, more won’t. But of the few Canadians who sponsor, no-one is likely to chose this unknown lady over someone they know personally. But good luck… !
