Changui de Guantanamo
Marking the 50th anniversary of the Cuban Revolution, a specially recorded studio session by Cuban five-piece Changui de Guantanamo. Plus recent Cuban and Latin-American releases.
In the year of the 50th anniversary of the Cuban revolution, World Routes features a specially recorded studio session by Cuban five-piece Changui de Guantanamo. Presenter Lucy Duran first encountered this group on the road as part of her World Routes report from Cuba in June 2007.
Changui is an old style from the Eastern Guantanamo province dating back to the 19th century and combining elements of Spanish guitar and African traditions. The songs are played on instruments such as the marimbula thumb piano, the tres (a kind of three-stringed guitar), and an array of percussion including the guiro, maracas and bongos.
Lucy is also joined in the studio by Sue Steward and Crispin Robinson for a look at some recent Cuban and Latin-American releases on CD.
