Papo Ortega and his Cubanoson Orchestra will bring their own brand of danceable, Cuban music to SUNY College at Old Westbury on October 30, 2014 in an event presented by the College’s Hispanic/Latino Cultural Center.
To be held in the John & Lillian Maguire Theater within the College’s Campus Center, the event is open to the public. General admission tickets are $10 and can be reserved by calling 516-997-7335.
Cubanoson is a traditional 10 piece Cuban Dance Orchestra as created by director Leonel “Papo” Ortega. This musically inspired pianist and composer has enjoyed the privilege of working alongside exceptional musicians, among them, Roberto Rodriguez, Lionel Sanchez, Chocolate Armenteros, Junior Rivera, José Fajardo and Cándido Camero. The orchestra unites two Cuban styles of music: the vocal genre of the Punto Cubano with the upbeat tempo of the Son Montuno.
