Richie Vitale arrangement of the beautiful Cuban Danzon "Almendra".

Regarded as Cuba's national dance, the danzon is characterized by flute lead, legato strings (violins and cello), rhythm section (timbales, conga, güiro, bass, piano) and vocals.

Later, in the 1940's and 50's, Arsenio Rodríguez helped develop and popularize Son Cubano incorporating conga, piano and trumpets to the typical son ensemble. This is arguably the most influential musical style to come out of Cuba. Son originated in eastern Cuba, and laid the foundations of the international genre called Salsa.
