Mozart y Mambo
Mozart y Mambo – Sarah Willis merging classical music from Europe with traditional Cuban rhythms like Mambo, Salsa, Rumba and Son.
Together with hornist Sarah Willis we travel to Havana, where she will realise a long-held dream: she will create her “Mozart y Mambo” program, merging classical music from Europe with traditional Cuban rhythms like Mambo, Salsa, Rumba and Son. Her partners in crime are classically trained musicians from Cuba, as well as musicians with a focus on traditional Cuban music.
This irresistible musical encounter will culminate in a big concert, which will not only see Sarah Willis performing with the Havana Lyceum Orchestra and conductor José Antonio Méndez Padrón, but also a Cuban Salsa-Mambo-Band. A joint celebration of Mozart, the likes of which has never been seen – or heard – before.
