As part of the International Day of Peace, at the invitation of the town of Varennes-Vauzelles, the orchestra La Mecanica is offering a musical journey with salsa as the destination. From Puerto Rico to Cuba, via Colombia and Venezuela, the Centre Gérard Philipe will be vibrating to the rhythm of congas, trumpet, trombone... and other timbales. Warmth and good vibes guaranteed for an afternoon of salsa 'dura' from the 70s, the golden age of salsa.

LA MECANICA

The La Mecánica Cuban Salsa Orchestra brilliantly interprets the music of Portabales, Arsenio Rodrigues, Ignacio Piñero and Nico Saquito, the finest voices in Cuban music. From concerts to festivals, La Mecánica reconciles all those for whom the expression of the body, through dance, is something other than simple gesticulations.
