Good day dear blog followers, listeners, readers ¡y todos los amantes de la musica Cubana!
Today we shall enjoy a fine Son Montuno composition by bassist Pavel Molina and his group SongoMania, from their album “Dale a tu Bandera”, which came out in 2016!
Cuban bassist Pavel Molina was born in 1975 in La Habana, and has been playing since the age of 9, studying with some of the best teachers in Cuba, including the legendary Israel “Cachao” Lopez.
Over the years Pavel played in various groups and ensembles, performing traditional Cuban music, Jazz and Timba, including 10 wonderful years as the bassist of none other than Los Van Van, recording on Chapeando and La Maquinaria.
Since leaving Los Van Van for his solo career in late 2012, Pavel participated in over 20 CDs and DVDs, recording with Alexander Abreu, Yeni Valdez and several members of the Buena Vista Social Club, performed all over Europe and Latin America, and participated in several films and TV shows.
So for today, we have a nice composition from his 2016 solo album called “Jardinero de Amor”.
