Description
A new generation of Puerto Rican musicians are leading authentic island rhythms of bomba, plena, and jibaro music into fresh musical territory. New bands, such as Banda Criolla, are experimenting with many new diverse world influences without ever leaving their authentic Puerto Rican roots behind.
Guitarist, composer and virtuoso Cuatro player, Jose Gonzalez, is one of the foremost exponents of Puerto Rican / Latin music in the United States today. Acclaimed for his original compositions featuring "the Cuatro", (Puerto Rico's national instrument), his seven self-produced recordings have become bestsellers. His music has been featured in television and film productions by NBC, PBS, CNN, cable TV, as well as three Putumayo World Music collection CDs and on the new Bose Corp. CD "World Music".
Jose is a graduate of the University of Puerto Rico, and his vast musical experiences include performances in Mexico, Dominican Republic, Cuba, Puerto Rico, Martinique, Curacao, and the U.S.A with major Latin artists such as: Libertad Lamarque, Sandro, Braulio, Danny Rivera, Andres Jimenez, Roy Brown, Wilkins, Giovanni Hidalgo and Ruben Blades.
Jose Gonzalez and Banda Criolla have been featured on three Putumayo World Music collections as well as the Bose Corp. CD "World Music". The title track of their new album, "Bomba Le L", was released worldwide on the Putumayo World Music's label newest release "Latin Playground".
Styles: Latin American, classical, pop, jazz and original music performed on Spanish guitars, Puerto Rican Cuatro, Flute and Latin Percussion.
Banda Criolla - (vocal / Dance) 8-piece Festive Latin Band performing hot dance rhythms in the styles of top Latino artists such as Santana, Juan Luis Guerra, Gloria Estefan, Gypsy Kings, Strunz and Farah.
