Afro-Cuban All Stars in Miami

Posted by Brian on Sep 14, 2009 in Travel |

Some cities invent their own rhythm, based on the contributions of the populations living there.  In some of the more tightly packed urban centers, the rhythms of work and the pursuit of the good life determines a pace that the rest of the city follows.  In other cities, the rhythms are hard to find, but they’re there certainly, created daily by the repetition of events and social niceties.  Other cities have that impossible balance between human activity, culture, and nature, and the rhythms are palpable and seem to exist somewhere between human and nature.  These are the cities with a real heartbeat, and Miami is one of these.  The heartbeat is constant in Miami.  Luxury hotels are the best way to soak in this energy, because we put you in the center of splendor.  You’ll enjoy a fantastic sense of rejuvenation that will invite you to make your own adventures here.

There is so much to choose from in Miami, with a wide array of attractions that will appeal to guests of all ages.  Following the rhythms that you hear and feel are always a good idea, and here it’s fantastic, because this will lead you into the heart of things.  If nightlife is on your mind, dancing until the sun comes up with people who share a lust for life, then you’re in the right place.  2009 has already been a great year for music here, and saw a new tour by the Afro-Cuban All Stars.  These are the musicians who were part of the Buena Vista Social Club, with an album and a brilliant film by the German genius Wim Wendars of the same name.

Many people think of Ry Cooder when they hear the name of the Afro-Cuban All Stars, because of his pivotal role in gathering together some of the greatest musicians alive.  They are all masters of their instrument, having studied with the great Cuban masters under a Russian education, which emphasizes technique and precision.  The other pivotal player in this project was Juan De Marcos, who helped to organize the original project.  His own Havana roots shine through as he joins the great musicians in this tour, playing in Miami among other cities, with rhythms that are very familiar around here.
