Cuba Linda

"Cuba Linda", the fifth album by trumpeter Maite Hontelé, is a Colombian-Cuban co-production that brings together musical geniuses from both countries, as well as their industry strongholds, in an ambitious project that promises to become a landmark in Caribbean music.

The album invited the collaboration of musicians of the highest level such as: Orquesta Aragón, Robertón (of Los Van Van), Osaín del Monte, William Borrego, Issac Delgado, Goyo (of Chocquibtown) and Vicente García, which evidences a daring mix of rhythms, a complex proposal that in addition to fulfilling dreams of the Dutch, will also hypnotise the audience that hears it.

The album will be a homage of the Dutch to the diversity of Cuban music, by including classics from its repertoire and styles such as: changui, danzón, son cubano, montuno and mambo. It will also represent the cultural encounter of two seemingly distant continents.
