FEELING SOMETHING SPECIAL – Cuba and Tanga music

When your geographical horizon extends – for business or pleasure – you have the wonderful opportunity to hear you inside as well as the Vitruvian Man reminds us. A perfectly proportioned man (created by Leonardo da Vinci), correlating the symmetry of human anatomy to the symmetry of the universe. What you see, hear, eat and feel, it’s all inside Meeting Benches way: the Vitruvian approach to life.   Tanga, written by the classically trained Cuban trumpeter Mario Bauzá in the 1940s, became the theme song for Machito and his band, the Afro-Cubans. Slang for marijuana in Afro-Cuban, Machito’s rendition of Tanga earned him the title of the creator of Latin-jazz, which united the improvisations of jazz with the flavorings of Latin and fused the rhythms of Afro-Cuban music. Machito paved a path for future Cuban jazz musicians. Welcome in Cuba, where you can feel something special: Machito & His Afro Cubans Tanga
