Orquesta Aragón - Sin Tiqui Tiqui - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

One of the longest running Cuban orquestas, Orquesta Aragin was arguably the finest Charanga group of 1950's and 60's Havana. They were one of the first groups to blend the traditional son with Afro-Cuban rhythms and Spanish melodies over a layer of violins and flutes, which would become synonymous with the charanga sound. The group included some of the best Cuban musicians of the era including Richard Egues, the master flautist; and were highly influential on the New York mambo scene of the late 1950's. These rare classic 1960's era recordings feature the group at the height of their powers. All selections have been newly remastered.

The legendary Orquesta Aragon is one of Cuba's longest running charanga orchestras, started in 1939 by Orestes Aragon Cantero in Cienfuegos, Cuba and still performing today. When flautist and gifted composer Richard Egues joined the band in 1954, Aragon's cha-cha sound went international and the band toured the United States and South America. This rare, late 1960's recording features the band at the height of it's powers and stands as a classic example of Afro-Cuban dance music at it's finest. All selections newly remastered.
