La Charanga Habanera

Cuban Charanga Habanera began playing traditional music, such as cha cha cha, mambo, bolero, and guaracha, under the direction of José Picayo in the late '80s. Violinist Gerardo Aguillón (ex-Ritmo Oriental), David Calzado, and flutist Jorge Emilio Maza were joined by singer Juan Carlos González in 1989. Their first independent record was called "De la Habana a Montecarlo." Talented local musicians wanted to be part of the promising band, soon becoming Charanga Habanera's new members. In 1992, the tropical outfit recorded their debut album, titled Love Fever (Me Sube La Fiebre)...
