"...listen with fresh ears to this tribute to the roots of Cuban dance music and discover that –  in the end – there is no substitute for great musicians playing great songs."
On 20 October each year Cuba celebrates their National Day of Culture ‘Jornada de la Cultura Cubana’. The day marks the anniversary of the first time the National Anthem was sung, near the beginning of the struggle for independence and to end slavery.
Catch a special screening on 29 October from 35mm film of the documentary ‘Buena Vista Social Club’ to mark the 25th anniversary of the release of the original album.
Today Cubans start to celebrate their National Day of Culture 10-20 October.
