Soy la Mulata by Raúl Gutierrez & His Cuban Big Band (Digital Album)
“Soy la Mulata” is an album composed of classic songs from the Cuban repertoire that represent different time periods. The novelty of this album is that it is a presents the music in a present-day big band formation which contrasts the small formations the pieces were originally written for. One could say that the style of music is “Cuban Son.” Thanks to Raúl Guitérrez & His Cuban Big Band, the world can hear new interpretations of Cuban composers which feature many contemporary Latin musicians.$10.00$14.0029% offSoy la Mulata by Raúl Gutierrez & His Cuban Big Band (Digital Album)

The Afro-Georgian Project by Raul Gutierrez & Cugate Artists (CD)
Afro Gerogian Moods is an album that reclaims these principles and makes them its own to challenge the conventional parameters of music and cultural interaction. With a solid base loaded with rhythmic cells linked to the Afro-Cuban liturgical tradition, a lyrical discourse is developed with surprising results. For example, due to the ceremonious effect of the ternary subdivisions on the themes composed by Chabuka Amiranashvili, impregnated with the Persian mysticism suggested in the vocal inflections of the choirs, or by the fortunate chain of resolutions of the melodic motifs that usually appear in passages characterized by their harmonic tensions, as is the case of “Monkiano”, composed by Raúl Gutiérrez. It is also worth highlighting the stupendous role of Raúl Cabrera, one of the main arrangers, together with Quillo García Caturla and José Antonio Quintana, who retakes a search for textures and colors that sounds familiar to us because of the references to María Schneider and Thad Jones, but with a more contemporary orchestration, linked to the development of Afro-Cuban music.$15.00$19.00 -

Tito Puente Special by Raul Gutierrez & His Cuban Big Band (CD)
In Caribbean music, “El que no tiene de Mongo tiene de Tito Puente” (he who doesn’t have Mongo has Tito Puente). We will go to the bar or to the terrace smoking some very young cigars and spraying the leather with rums of any solera. In Hopper’s paintings no one dances salsa, but you might hear a bolero in the background. The Caribbean is the outdoors with the smoke of barbecues. Let’s not get exquisite either: the early morning has no heart, but salsa has its lineage. To all those centers (rums, cigars, hunting, hides, madrugada and above all lineage) travel the darts -very poisoned with good music, pardon the oxymoron- of this album.$15.00$19.0021% offTito Puente Special by Raul Gutierrez & His Cuban Big Band (CD)
