about

MEANING: Takes an early morning stroll down a bustling residential street in Havana. Kids play sidewalk games, adults play dominoes and birds fly around the listener while an ensemble plays changüí. The city is waking up.

NEIGHBORHOOD: El Vedado

FICTION: This is the neighborhood where the Cuban protagonist, Ana, lives and practices medicine.

INFLUENCES: Buena Vista Social Club, Septeto Habanero, Orquesta Revé, Lee "Scratch" Perry

OTHER: Changüí is Cuba's oldest musical fusion of Spanish guitar and West African drumming.
