DANZAS CUBANAS (2010) – Robert Sheldon
Danzas Cubanas is a set of three original dance-like movements celebrating the joy and energy of Afro-Cuban music and people of this island nation. The opening conga sets the mood, followed by a gentle and alluring son-salsa. The closing dance is a fast-paced mambo. An excellent multi-cultural music experience, the three interconnected dances feature solos for piano, trombone, flute, and trumpet.

Located in Tampa, Florida, Fanfare Concert Winds is non-profit 65+ piece concert band comprised of local amateur and professional musicians and music students.
