Seventy years of music goes a long way, and this is what the Lizt Alfonso Dance Cuba has proposed to show in the show that is now being shown at the Apolo in Barcelona, ??Cuba vibrates. The Paral·lel theater hosts this company formed at the Alfonso school, which tours the world with up to three simultaneous shows of the twenty they have created since 1991.
His world tours have already visited 30 countries, with the United States and Canada as his second homes. “I would like to come to Spain a lot more, but the opportunity doesn’t come around that often,” Alfonso laments.
Fifteen dancers, three dancers, four musicians and a singer perform on the stage of the Cuba vibra show, telling the history of Cuban music since the mid-20th century, without stopping dancing. The rhythms follow one another, from the most Antillean and Afro-Cuban, to the fusion with the sounds that come from the United States, such as jazz, swing and rock.
“At the school, students are trained from the age of 5 until they obtain the university degree of fusion dance dancer, which is highly recognized,” declares the director, who confesses that she does not miss any of the performances.
