This is my homage to Melquiades Fundora who died on 14 February 2009

I have played alongside him with La Sublime in Havana in 2006 and 2007 and this performance at the Cabaret Nacional in Havana  on April 6th 2009 was a tribute to him as one of the founders of Orquesta Sublime in 1955.

Melquiades Fundora played the flauta de cinco llaves and there’s an interview with him on the publications page of this site. The new CD ‘Look Back In Charanga’ will be dedicated to Melquiades and Richard Egües.
