Bolero. A feeling that is danced<\/em><\/p>\n

In this plate that brings together, a group of danceable boleros almost begins a philological meditation.<\/p>\n

Cuban dancers were always divided into hardly notable categories for those unaware of the intrigues of popular dance. There is the one who likes to "take a foot", somewhat alarming, who dances "scattered" and with its hallways. And there is the "one brick" that needs to enjoy the warmth of the couple. Near this is the one who knows how to enjoy a good dance bolero.<\/p>\n

Although in matters of boleros all were made to dance - the essence of the genre is that of the gallantry, the \u201cfaj\u00f3n\u201d with chords -, the peculiarity of the dancing bolero is another. He became enthroned as a recurrence in the popular saraos, to recover from a rumba or a guaracha, and thus passed to the records. It was a pause after several swirling pieces. It was a subtle way to return to stillness without losing movement. And they established the expected moment of \"squeezing\", a word that may seem procaz if deprived of the intimacy and closeness of the loved one, to the spell of music. Because in the danceable bolero the most important thing is the environment that is achieved.<\/p>\n

Well, here, suddenly and surprisingly, we are surprised by a small anthology of danceable boleros, with some of their top representatives: El Beny, Roberto Faz, Tito G\u00f3mez, Pacho Alonso and, miracles of the persistent continuity of Cuban music, what which brings us the combination of talent and tradition in Adalberto \u00c1lvarez. Here some unboiling boleros meet, with their own world, their \"pegaditos\" or \"ensaladas\", where love themes are whispered without losing the cadence. And they are orchestras that marked milestones when the relationship with the jazz-band was imposed and the Casino and Riverside Ensemble arrived to stay.<\/p>\n

In short, we are offered an opportunity to once again enjoy the Cuban identity from the eternal bolero. Thus, while we \u201cmark\u201d \u2013 which is a way of dancing without exaggerating the movement in delightful complicity of the body and the rhythm -, we reel off the bolero lyrics in the ear of our partner: \u201cyou'll stay because I love you, you'll stay because I love you. I give love\u201d; \u201cI lacked peace, I lacked love, I lacked you\u201d; \u201cIf the light of your love were not a traitor to me\u201d; "As I think of you, my great love"... Those lyrics that are true arguments, synthesized stories, that serve men and women alike, and that help them to beautifully express what life experiences constitute an arsenal that ended up fixed in the collective subconscious and deepened the pleasure of the danceable bolero.<\/p>\n

They are more than powerful reasons to acquire and love this album, because together with the pleasure of dancing, it delivers a sentimental treatise, thanks to the presence of the bolero, the usual one, in our intrinsic melomania of Cubans.<\/p>\n
