Please help our friend & fellow salsa lover, Ms. Viet Lam.
We need to raise awareness of the lack of minority representation on the National Marrow Donor Registry. Minorities account for less than 31% of all donors – Asians, only 6% & Hispanics only 10%. This means that if you or a loved one or family mamber is in need of a marrow donor, you have a less than 30% of finding a match. We need to increase these numbers and help the sick survive. Learn how you can become a donor and if you choose, register at our event. It's as easy as swabbing your mouth. Please help – for many, including Viet, it's a matter of survival.
EVENT STARTS AT 6pm:
Jake and Louise teach Beg Salsa 6-7pm
Luis and Louise teach Intermed 7-8pm
DJs Fab Fred and El de la Clave
Live Music with Montuno Swing
Floor shows
This even is completely Free to attend. Be The Match Foundation will administer registrations and also accept donations for its national efforts to register more donors. See BeTheMatch.org!

Tuesday, October 20, 8PM
Palace of Fine Arts Theatre
$35/$55/$80 Premium
A living legend for decades in her native Cuba, Omara Portuondo finally gained international fame as part of Buena Vista Social Club. Born in Havana in 1930, Portuondo first entered show business as a dancer at the city’s famous cabaret Tropicana. Soon afterwards, she embarked on a singing career that earned her the sobriquet “la novia del filin” (literally, the “fiancée of feeling”). Portuondo’s reputation only increased during the ‘50s through the ‘70s, singing with some of the most important and beloved Cuban bands of the time such as Cuarteto d’Aida and Orquesta Aragon. But it was her 1996 duet with vocalist Ibrahim Ferrer on “Veinte Años” for Buena Vista Social Club that introduced her to U.S. audiences. Two critically-acclaimed solo albums for World Circuit and sold-out international tours followed. Her latest release, 2008’s Gracias, celebrates her sixth decade as an entertainer. For her first U.S. tour since 2004, she revisits the romantic Afro-Cuban boleros and Brazilian-inspired jazz that first made her a star.

Since their arrival in 2000, Spanish Harlem Orchestra has established itself as a standard bearer of contemporary Latin music.  Directed by world-renowned pianist, arranger, and producer Oscar Hernández, the thirteen-member all-star ensemble has reintroduced the classic sounds of New York City Salsa to music lovers worldwide.
Our music style is the original sound of New York old school "Salsa dura" (heavy salsa) that was played in the early years by our pioneers, says Oscar. "That sound has been lost and we want to keep it alive while educating the new generations (and music lovers in general) on the true musical roots of our culture." Oscar adds, we've brought back the essence of what makes this music great and are keeping the salsa spirit alive in our recordings and shows.
