A Lincoln Center favorite since 2015, ¡VAYA! is a showcase for the finest Latin dance traditions. ¡VAYA! offers devotees of Latin music a friendly community, excellent orchestras, and the city's most inviting dance floor. The scorching hot Cuban ensemble Son Del Monte is led by master Timbalero, Manuel Rivera, formerly of the Yambu Orchestra and Sonsublime. The 12-piece Son Del Monte band incorporates trombones alongside lively vocals and soaring contributions from flute, violin, trombone, piano, and congas to merge charanga and conjunto musical styles into a uniquely New York sound that Rivera has dubbed chajunto. You'll call it "perfecto" as this talented cadre of musicians perform a hard-driving whirlwind of melodic power that pays homage to the son cubano greats of past and present.
