Rapsodia Cubana (on Cuban Airs) Composer: Ernesto Lecuona (1895-1963) Performers: Thomas Tirino (piano) & Polish National Radio Symphony Conductor: Michael Bartos Ernesto Lecuona y Casado (August 6, 1895 Guanabacoa, Havana, Cuba - November 29, 1963 Santa Cruz de Tenerife, Canary Islands, Spain) was a Cuban composer and pianist of Basque descent, and world-wide fame. He composed over six hundred pieces, mostly in the Cuban vein, and was a pianist of exceptional quality. Lecuona started early studying piano under his sister Ernestina, a famed composer in her own right. He later studied at the Peyrellade Conservatoire under Antonio Saavedra and the famous Joaquin Nin. Lecuona graduated from the National Conservatory of Havana with a Gold Medal for interpretation when he was sixteen. And he performed outside of Cuba at the Aeolian Hall (New York) in 1916. He first traveled to Spain in 1924 on a concert tour with violinist Maria de la Torre; his successful piano recitals in 1928 at Paris coincided with a rise in interest in Cuban music. He was a prolific composer of songs and music for stage and film. His works consisted of zarzuela, Afro-Cuban and Cuban rhythms, suites and many songs which are still very famous. They include Siboney (Canto Siboney), Malagueña and The Breeze And I (Andalucía). In 1942, his great hit, Always in my heart (Siempre en mi Corazon) was nominated for an Oscar for Best Song; however, it lost to White Christmas. Lecuona was a master of the symphonic <b>...</b> Lecuona -...

Dedicated to the six Italian soldiers, and so many Afghan civilians, fallen in Afghanistan 17 September 2009. Malaguena was composed by Ernesto Lecuona from Cuba, in version for piano; i don't know if Lecuona Himself presented a version for Orchestra, but you can find several version for different groups, band or Orchestra. Xavier Cugat is a far remembering for me, as he was often guest of the Saturday night show in Italian TV RAI ( at that time there was one program and one channel ). May be i remember him for his unusual name: Xavier Cugat ( 1900-1990) was from Spain, and very popular in USA, conducting for years the Orchestra of Waldorf Astoria in New York. Malaguena means from Malaga, a city in Costa del Sol, Spain, so i present images i took with my wife during the Easter Week Malaguena by...
AN OLD POPULAR RUSSIAN SONG PLAYED IN CUBAN TASTE Ojos negros = Dark eyes = Ochi chyornye = Очи чёрные is a old song from the times of Russian Empire, relating the enchanting power of female black=dark eyes. the author of the lyrics was Yevhen Hrebinka an Ukrainian poet and writer, he published this poem in 1843, while the melody comes from aa Walzer written by a german author Florian Hermann. What is the matter between and old russian song and a musical group from Cuba, the Lecuona Cuban Boys ? ( with an Italian singer Alberto Rabagliati) In the time of Soviet Union where Russia was the leading republic, there was also a Cuban cosmonaut Arnaldo Tamayo Méndez, and he had dark eyes ! He travelled space in 1980 in the sovietic space program and now he is a General of Cuban Army. You could say : but Lecuona Cuban Boys registered this song in 1938 more than 40 years before.....dont' worry because arts often go in advance to reality ! Images comes from an USSR magazine from 1980-1984 when also central Asia states where part of Soviet Union, they belong ( except one) to my little collection of Soviet Items, i' m NOT nostalgic of that times, unless i was in my Twenty....... In the typical vintage color there are scene of : Space exploration, science research, central Asia people, female character, Sovietic fashion.....and some images of Black Sea (holidays land for few ) ! with Mr. Lenin as usual at that times. Is only for chance that today is the First of May, the feast of <b>...</b> Ojos negros =...
