La Rumba Soy Yo - Con Sentimiento Manana (2004)

Close

The Rumba has a bed of legends where myths lie that come from everywhere and long ago, confusing anecdotes that no one knows who told them first, but which all repeat with pride of first fruits. Just like its drums abd attributes, these fables preserve the treasure of knowledge and have earned, by their own right, a space within the spiritual heritage that makes up the Cuban nationality.
Famous names are linked to those legends: Manana, Malanga, Chino Guaguao or Antón Pirulero. They were all real-life characters, people who existed in different periods but who for different reasons remained wrapped in an enchantment that made them half reality, half fantasy. The story of Manana is one of them. Some say Manana was a woman, the majority say a man, but all agree in one point: he danced the rumba with such special feeling that only to recall it irnsmits the strenght of an unforgettable performance.
(…) These rumbas belong to manana, as well as to Andrea Baró, Malanga, Chano, Saldiguera, Virulilla, Goyito, Cané, el Amaliano, and also to Diosdado, Jesús, Amado, Geovani, el Goyo, los Aspirina, Minini, Chachá, Yeyo, Chavalonga, Juan de Dios and so many others who live for them; these rumbas of Feeling, of Manana felling, are made and offered with Manana Feeling.
May memory tresure them.
