Sur Caribe Orchestra

Sur Caribe is a Santiago de Cuba-born group, approaching popular danceable music, which received this name because of the geographic situation of this beautiful city, located at the south of the island and soaked by warm waters of the Caribbean Sea. The orchestra and Ricardo Leyva, its current director, joined their destinies in 1987.

This union blew up on the strength of its popularity, earning it, in a sudden, the acknowledgement as the most popular orchestra of this city keeping this condition until our days.

The orchestra is composed by graduated youngsters from the Arts Schools of the country, who, boasting a high technical and rigorously-professional condition, tackle every genre from our Cuban popular music, as well as Latin and Caribbean rhythms; a remarkable feature of this orchestra is the powerful and different sonority, together with the undoubted literary value in the lyrics of its compositions.
