BIENVENIDOS A LA PLATAFORMA GLOBAL DE SALSA

INTERNATIONAL SALSA MAGAZINE

HELLO FRIENDS, I want to say welcome and thank you for signing up to receive the monthly publication, International Salsa Magazine. Printing has gone through a lot of changes since Johannes Gutenberg first invented the printing press. We believe that digital printing is the wave of the future and we are proud to be riding that futuristic wave. It is so convenient for everyone to get a magazine to you without any delay and at a fraction of what it would normally cost. We try to print articles that may be of interest to musicians, dancers, promoters, and establishments that host Latin music events. We publish articles sent to us by our readers, and correspondents in both English and Spanish. We actively accept correspondents throughout the world. Our correspondents are the link to all the other members about what is happening in their respective areas. At times correspondents attend events and interview artists performing in their areas. They also tell us the hot spots for people to go dancing and special concerts. The magazine also tries to inform on all webpages about salsa. We do not feel that others are our competition, but that they are our brothers in this effort to keep our art alive. There are also a great deal of free music available on line and we try to tell our readers about those stations. This magazine is different from a webpage, because since it is a monthly publication, you know that what you are reading is current events in the salsa world. We hope to make everyone associated with us proud to be a part of International Salsa Magazine. Maria Ferrara, Romina Maraschini, and Alan Taborda all work very hard every month to make this magazine available to you. We hope to get your emails and feed back about how we can improve, bands you know about, if they recorded a CD and want to be reviewed, or if there is an event, or place that you want to tell us about. Let us know and we will be happy to share this information with all our other Salseros. Yours truly, Eduardo Guilarte - Editor



SALSA NEWS MUERE FRANCISCO AGUABELLA LOS ANGELES (SALSA GLOBAL).- Salsa Global ha confirmado el fallecimiento del conguero Francisco Aguabella, quién venía padeciendo desde semanas atrás de un agravamiento en su delicado estado de salud, consecuente con un cáncer que padecía y que lo mantenía en reposo en su hogar en Los Ángeles, ciudad estadounidense donde residía desde mediados de la centuria anterior, cuando el artista cubano comenzaba a ser reconocido en las escenas del jazz y los círculos artísticos (música, danza y cine) de los Estados Unidos. Aguabella fue un aprestigiado músico en las distintas esferas desde donde fue solicitado, gracias a sus dotes de percusionista hábil en el tañer de los tambores de la herencia africana, gracias también a las cuales se convirtió en un maestro con altísimo reconocimiento y en uno de los artistas más inspiradores de la polirritmía musical, basta observar su hoja de vida, para saber de por que la admiración y respeto que logró, y no solamente en el campo de la música, en donde fue denominado por los especialistas como "El John Coltrane de las congas".Oriundo de Matanzas, "un puerto cubano entre los manantiales de La Marina y las alturas de Simpson", en donde nació el 10 de octubre de 1925, Aguabella fue además de músico instrumentista, un compositor y director orquestal que bien pronto fue estimado por los expertos

como miembro de esa élite de percusionistas que dominaban con profunda facilidad los idiomas folklóricos, populares y comerciales de las denominadas músicas cubanas, jazz y salsa.Catalogado por Cachao como "uno de los baluartes de la música cubana", Aguabella grabó y actuó en los cinco continentes con innumerables figuras de los distintos ámbitos musicales, como Dizzy Gillespie, Lionel Hampton, Mongo Santamaría, Eddie Palmieri, Tito Puente, Frank Sinatra, Cal Tjader, Lalo Schifrin, Walfredo De Los Reyes, Nancy Wilson, Poncho Sánchez, Bebo Valdés, Carlos Santana, The Doors, Paul Simón, con el propio Cachao y con muchos otros connotados músicos.Aguabella fue junto a Jorge Santana, dos de los fundadores del grupo Malo, con el cual grabaron tres elepes y recorrieron el país del norte con éxito durante los años setentas y que llevarón a Johnny Pacheco y Jerry Masucci a fijarse en Jorge "Malo" Santana para ser convocado a las Estrellas de Fania.Aguabella salió de Cuba en la década de los cincuenta para participar con Katherine Dunham en la película italiana "Mambo", protagonizada por Silvana Mangano, Vittorio Gassman, Shelley Winters y Michael Rennie. El cine fue uno de los campos donde se destacó y donde hizó grandes amistades como la compartida con Marlon Brando, quién además fuera su alumno de ritmos afrocubanos y compañero de noches de bohemia y baile, tanto en Nueva York y Los Ángeles como en La Habana, donde el extraordinario actor lo vio tocando

en un club nocturno para invitarlo al Hotel Nacional a repicar las congas juntos, escena que se repitió en innumerables ocasiones junto a otros tamboreros con quienes armaban prolongados bembés, incluso antes que el director italiano de cine Robert Rossen lo invitase a Italia para actuar en el año 1954.Llegó a Norteamérica en 1957, luego de recorrer Europa con la Dunham, "con su Santa Bárbara en el corazón y los misterios de Añá en el movimiento de sus manos sobre el tambor". según el columnista Jorge Luis Rodríguez, quién además proclama que Aguabella "retomó la antorcha que Chano Pozo había encendido con el fuego de la percusión cubana en Nueva York, completando el gran quinteto del siglo XX para las olimpiadas del tambor, junto a Mongo Santamaría, Patato Valdez y Cándido". Al parecer fue el primer tamborero en el mundo en tocar a la vez cinco congas en un mismo set y "back line".Aguabella llegó a los Estados Unidos para llevar a cabo una gira con Peggy Lee, perfomance que durósiete años.posibilitándole residenciarse en la Unión Americana, en donde se presentó hasta en la Casa Blanca, en más de una ocasión. Prefirió la atmósfera de la Bahía de San Francisco a los aires del Río Hudson, estableciéndose en Los Angeles, donde fue profesor de distintos grados en el Departamento de Etnomusicología de (UCLA) y donde a menudo se presentaba a los públicos californianos con su Latin Jazz Ensemble y su Afrocuban Ensamble, propuestas con las que permanentemente rendía tributos

ceremoniales en alabanza yoruba Ochimini,dentro de la tradición lucumí, dando gracias a sus orishas por los favores recibidos. Aguabella tuvo el honor de recibir varios premios, entre ellos, el del Movimiento Nacional de Patrimonio de la Fundación Nacional para las Artes, el de Maestro de los Músicos de la Fundación Durfee de Becas y el reconocimiento del Condado de Los Ángeles por parte de la Comisión de Artes de la importante ciudad. En 1992 obtuvo la Beca Nacional de Patrimonio de la Fundación Nacional de las Artes otorgada por el gobierno de los Estados Unidos.En 1985 se le vió aparecer en el documental, "Sworn To the Drum: A Tribute to Francisco Aguabella", del cineasta estadounidense Les Blank, y actualmente se le homenajeaba en un nuevo documental a su vida y obra,"Aguabella",producido por el actor y cineasta cubano Matacena Orestes, coproductor de películas como La Máscara de Chuck Russell y Bitter Sugar (Azúcar Amarga) de León Ichaso.Finalmente, tomando a Jorge Luis Rodríguez, parafraseamos manifestando que Aguabella "estuvo en una dimensión dormida frente al mar de Olokum y cruzada por tres ríos de Ochún, donde la familia Aguabella continúa haciendo Ochimini para que no se rompan las fuerzas que unen a Cuba, allí donde se cruzan una guitarra española y un tambor africano". http://www.franciscoaguabella.com Julio Ramírez B Medellín, Colombia

Great Pictures by PETER MAIDEN

June 2010 This is bandleader Johnny Polanco on vibes, with two of his horn men. Polanco, who also plays trombone and guitar, makes his home in the Los Angeles area, and in this instance was visiting San Francisco. The picture was taken in 2000. The club was Jelly’s, on the bay near what is now AT&T Park. I arrived with a friend of Johnny’s, Fé Prather, only to find we were not on the guest list. Johnny came over, and had some words with the door person, who would not budge. Finally he took a twenty-dollar bill and slammed it on the table so Fé and I could get in. I tried to accept graciously, and hoped I would get a picture worthy of Johnny’s gesture. I like this one. The setting sun is streaming through the windows on the right, Johnny’s face and flowered shirt are beautifully lit, and the two band members look very cool, almost like bodyguards. I shot black and white film with my sharpest lens at the time, a 35mm 1.4.

KPFA 94.1 CON SABOR Con Luis Medina

ABOUT ME - Luis Medina Music has been my passion since I was a little kid. I have been fortunate to make my passion a reality and to be on the air broadcasting for over 30 years. I have a concurrent career in entertainment and have worked in other areas of media such as television, publishing and the web. You can listen to my program, Con Sabor, every Saturday night from 9-11pm on KPFA, 94.1 FM in Berkeley/San Francisco Northern California and on the web at www.kpfa.org.

Life Is Good Sometimes we have to take the time to appreciate all the beauty that surrounds us. When we are closed minded, too busy, short of time, lost in thoughts about our troubles...we lose sight of the little things and the people that make life worth living. We need to take a moment to appreciate that we wake up every morning to a new day. How that day turns out is completely up to us. Life is good when we take advantage of that opportunity to make things better.

Tras una década de emisión a través de la FM, Radio Gladys Palmera da un salto en su estrategia y vuelca sus esfuerzos en la difusión de su música por Internet. A partir del próximo 1 de Marzo las emisiones de Radio Gladys Palmera pasarán a difundirse de forma exclusiva por Internet renunciando de forma consciente y estudiada a la difusión a través de las frecuencias (FM) y apostando de forma ambiciosa por la radio online. Este cambio de modelo, producto de una elaborada estrategia de

comunicación que pretende convertir a Radio Gladys Palmera en un medio de referencia de la World Music en el panorama internacional, se apoya en un nuevo portal web rico en contenidos informativos que combina el periodismo musical especializado con información actual y exclusiva, agenda internacional, novedades discográficas, conciertos y giras de los artistas más destacados de la escena española e internacional. En la novedosa oferta de radio online, la música que caracteriza a Gladys Palmera se podrá oír, ver, leer y comprar, pues el portal se

propone informar, incluir videos y vender canciones en su tienda virtual. Además de la programación habitual, el nuevo portal de Radio Gladys Palmera ofrece a los oyentes canales musicales especializados, podcast, blogs de información y opciones personalizadas de participación, acorde con los más avanzados sistemas de difusión online. En palabras de Alejandra Fierro Eleta, su Directora General, “este cambio, que tiene un coste emocional para mi que soy una enamorada de la radio convencional, supone un avance para el crecimiento de la marca

Gladys Palmera y un salto cualitativo y cuantitativo que nos permitirá llegar a más gente y en mejores condiciones que hasta ahora. En cualquier caso respetamos el espíritu ecléctico que siempre nos ha caracterizado.”

BOOKS

TROPICALIA CARAQUEÑA FEDERICO PACANINS Esta suma de textos de valor fundamental para la historia de la música urbana venezolana, recoge el fervor sistemático de Federico Pacanins durante casi treinta años de investigación. Tropicalia Caraqueña comprende ensayos, reportajes, entrevistas, crónicas, cronologías, algunos de ellos fueron publicados en las revistas y periódicos de los que Pacanins es colaborador, y otros muchos han permanecido inéditos. Los éditos, por otra parte, han sido trabajados desde sus versiones originales en tal magnitud que la mayoría son sustancialmente distintos.

EL LIBRO DE LA SALSA MIGUEL RONDON Agudeza, penetración, información de primera mano a través de entrevistas memorables, asistencia a muchos ensayos y conciertos, viajes iluminadores, adquisición de una montaña de discos y de allí un buen gusto para escoger con criterio la música más elaborada , los textos más originales y representativos y los personajes perdurables, todo un cúmulo precioso de datos que nos brindó en una síntesis agradable y apasionada, en la cual plasmó más de tres decenios misteriosos e inquietantes, que ya son parte de esa realización histórica y musical que logró proyectarse, colocarse e influir a nivel planetario con toda su contundencia.

TODAS LA VOCES DE AMERICA RAFEL SALAZAR Se trata de una de investigación del musicólogo Rafael Salazar, el trabajo está basado en los orígenes y evolución de la música mestiza Latinoamericana, resultado de la fusión de varias culturas: la cultura, europea, negroafricana, árabe y aborígen.

CRUDE REFLECTIONS LOU DEMATTEIS Crude Reflections/Cruda Realidad chronicles the human and environmental impact of oil drilling in the Ecuadorian Amazon, where the pollution is so extensive that medical experts currently predict thousands of deaths from cancer and the disappearance of five indigenous rainforest communities. Community leaders and doctors already report elevated rates of cancer in the region, as well as birth defects. Photographers Lou Dematteis and Kayana Szymczak have documented the physical and emotional reality of those affected by this toxic contamination, roughly 30 times greater than the more widely reported Exxon Valdez spill.

HUNGRY PLANET ERIK OLSEN It's already been pretty much established that America is a fast food nation. In fact, a book by Eric Schlosser with that exact title pretty much spells it all out. Many of us eat our own weight in hamburgers and fries every year, and you could fill a Volkswagen with the amount of grease that oozes its way though our bodies in a lifetime. But is America unique in this respect? I'm always reading articles about how the Chinese are becoming increasingly obese. Same with the Europeans...yes, even the culinarily snooty French. But it still raises a very interesting question: What does the world eat?

THE LATIN REAL BOOK CHUCK SHER Over 550 pages of the best in contemporary and classic Salsa, Latin-Jazz and Brazilian music. Available in C, Bb and Eb versions. Detailed arrangements, exactly as recorded, to help your band play in authentic Latin styles. Including (on many tunes): • bass lines for each section • piano montunos • drum and percussion appendix • horn counter-lines Lyrics in Spanish, Portuguese and/or English. Sher Music Co.'s world-famous quality throughout. The only professional-level Latin fake book ever published!

THE CLAVE MATRIX DAVID PEÑALOSA For the first time in print, Afro-Cuban clave music receives an in-depth analysis that shows, in a logical, step-by-step manner, precisely how all its rhythmic elements relate. For beginning students, performers, or music teachers, The Clave Matrix unlocks the rhythmic secrets of this extraordinary music. Over 300 pages, The Clave Matrix presents numerous examples and exercises (in standard and box notation), extensive chapter notes, bibliography, and a prodigious discography of 10 pages. Also included are 2 CDs with 117 tracks of examples.

Pedro Linares band La negramenta joins Salsaneo Records to bring its sound to the salsero all over the world. La Negramenta is a Venezuelan orchestra formed in 2008 by Pedrito Linares and Willians Castillo with the purpose of showcasing the talent that Barlovento has, and to continue the work that started in the 60’s by Calaven, Leo Pacheco, Al Escobar, los hermanos Piñango (creators of the sound of La Renovación), Nico Monterola (Leader of La Renovación), Rumbon 10, La Monumental, La Magistral, La Solvencia and most recently Paquito Barón, Wilmer Cobos, Marcial Isturiz, Miguel Urbina, etc. La Negramenta originates from Orquesta magistral funded by Pedro Saba Linares (Pedro Linares’s father). This band featured Willians Castillo, Paquito Baron, Roy Herrera, Juancho Ojeda and Cheo Palmar among others.

“Otra Cosa” is the 2nd production of La Negramenta, with compositions by Pedrito Linares, arrangements by Willians Castillo and Willie Melo.

UN TRIO INSEPARABLE INSTRUCTION IN THE TRADITIONAL POPULAR DANCES OF CUBA danzón - son - chachachá with maestro Roberto Borrell and dance partner Viola Gonzales DVD DESCRIPTION video type: instructional & demonstration dance level: beginning - intermediate 60 minutes of dance instruction 60 minutes of interviews and demonstrations Available in an English or Spanish version genres presented: danzón, son, chachachá

Un Trio Inseparable is a master class for all lovers of salsa, Latin dance, and Latin music, who want to learn and fully explore the three essential popular dance forms of Cuba from which all modern styles of salsa developed - the danzón, son, and chachachá. Leading the class is musician, dancer, and teacher extraordinaire Roberto Borrell, a Cuban gentleman who embodies his culture and has dedicated his life to perserving and passing on Cuba's rich traditions. Captivated by the music as a teenager, Roberto learned to dance and play music in the vibrant dance salons and social clubs of Havana in the early 1950's. See bio of Roberto Borrell. Over the past 20 years while residing the USA, Roberto has developed a comprehensive system of teaching the traditional popular dances of Cuba inspired by the manner in which he learned - the old school "open your eyes, open your ears" method. It’s a simple approach and yet you will be challenged to listen to your feet, to the music, and to become part of what Roberto calls the inseparable trio of the music, man, and woman. Accompanying Roberto is his favorite dance partner Viola Gonzales. Viola, along with her partner Garry Johnson, are professional dance teachers, and offer salsa classes in the San Francisco Bay Area.
