Tune into Radio Cuba Canta for s very interesting two hours of cuban music! We’ll begin with a tribute to the conjuntos and sextetos of the early cuban son. Following the Community Music Calendar which is 30 minutes into the program, we will have a set of interesting danzones to finish the first hour.

Then for the second half it’s a special hour of Jazz Cubano in solidarity with our Latin Jazz musicians who are standing up to the Grammy Awards officials who eliminated not only Latin Jazz, but over 30 genres of music from Cajun to Polka. Even though we do radio, we never forget that it’s the performing musicians who keep the flame burning. That’s RadioCubaCanta, 2 hours of great cuban music you can’t get enuf of!
