A visit to Oriente

Down home Cuba “roots” music

One of the great things about my trips to Cuba was being introduced to Changui by our friend Camilo Moreira.

Changuia is sublime “roots” music from the countryside of Oriente and not well known outside the island.

Documentary in Spanish, but lots to see and listen to – and feel.

And who knows, you might pick up a word or two?


Great news!

You can now watch this video – and all Spanish language videos – with English subtitles. It’s free!
