Afro-Cuban Music to Enhance the Moment

May 25, 2013 by arielweissberger Music 0 comments

This past week, a very wise 93 year old patient told me: “stop and smell the flowers and feel the summer breeze because it goes quicker than you can imagine”.

As the summer approaches I encourage you to listen to warm music that will enhance the feeling of the season. I have attached a video of the Afro Cuban All-Stars that may help you get in a festive summer mood.

Please take a moment to click on the video, sit back and watch from beginning to end, preferably with your headphones on so you can appreciate it fully.

As you listen, try not to think about anything else but the music.

Listen to all the parts and how they interact with one another. The bongos, the congas, the timbales, the bass, the horns, the piano, the vocals…

Listen to each instrument. Listen to the band as a whole. Listen to the mood and the atmosphere. Clap the clave. Look at all the dancing going on. Join if you must!

Enjoy and take the message in; LIFE IS A CELEBRATION.
