Who REALLY invented the mambo rhythm? How did Latin music and
dance become what they are, today?
Listen to the music and rhythms that are very, VERY rarely heard
in present day and live INSIDE the memories and experiences of
the high-profile LEGENDARY musicians and dancers who appear in
the film, such as "Cuban Pete," Charlie Rodriguez and
Agustin Caraballoso.
Very well-known are the names
of Celia Cruz and Tito Puente - but how many times have you
heard of the musicians who made THEM sound so good?
Come to Southern Star in the Waterside
Marketplace , located at 333 Waterside
Drive inside Suite 116 in Norfolk, VA
- for a special "Dinner with the
Producers" and to watch "La Epoca -
The Palladium Era" on a large movie screen and
with great sound - chairs will be arranged for maximum
viewing of the screen for guests to sit and view the film with
their families and friends. Dinner cuisine will be served from
6pm to 7pm. The film starts at 7:15pm SHARP and
will immediately be followed by an open-forum for guests to
discuss openly reactions to the film and then - dance Mambo and
Salsa until 2am!!
"La Epoca," a
feature-length documentary-film, is about the evolution of Latin
music and dance from the Palladium-era (1948-1970) to present
day. The film covers in-depth detail regarding the controversy
over dancing "on 1" versus dancing "on 2,"
Mambo versus Salsa, and the film focuses heavily on the
controversy over the the umbrella term "Salsa" and its
affects on the musicians and dancers since the conception of the
word's use to describe Latin music.
Come and bring your family -
parents, bring your sons and daughters - young club-goers, bring
your parents. The film is in English and with English-subtitles
for those who interviewed in Spanish.
This event is sponsored
in-part by Seven Cities Salsa and Southern
Star.
