A blending of traditional Cuban son with
today's salsa music and jazzy arrangements begins to describe Orquesta
INFINIDAD's sound.
The leader and founder of this Tampa, FL based 11 pc. band, Cuban born trumpeter Pedro Bullaudy, named them "INFINIDAD" (Infinity) with the past and the future in mind. "Our sound is very much in the present, but we draw from the rich latin musical heritage of rhythms to move the band's music forward. We have the freedom to take it where we want"
Orquesta INFINIDAD performs within the framework of a multitude of styles that have been developed in places such as Cuba, Puerto Rico, the US, Spain and South America.
The band consists of a male and a female vocalist, keyboards, bass, three percussionists and a brass section of two trumpets, trombone and sax. They have performed at such venues as the Superbowl in Tampa, Clearwater's Jazz Holiday and Miami's Calle Ocho.
Their most recent release is a 9 song CD of original compositions entitled "EL RIO". It is music that will make you move. The insightful lyrics of the title song, EL RIO, are about a river that is moving and always changing. It starts with a drop and grows as it travels on it's journey to the ocean. There are also songs of love- "Romance", "Amor Prohibido", "Vino y Pan"; a Havana carnaval- "Bejucal" (hometown of actor Andy Garcia) and others such as "Las Mujeres" (Women), "Retratos en mi Mente" (Pictures in my mind) and "El Merengue Apura'o" (Merengue in a hurry). The styles include Salsa, Merengue and Bachata.
Their sound is a cup of luxurious coffe, rich and authentic.
