Sarah Willis & The Sarahbanda

• Jazz, Blues, Swing & Chanson

Here comes the Sarahbanda, the Cuban band with a difference! Formed as part of the hugely popular »Mozart y Mambo« project and led by Sarah Willis of the Berlin Philharmonic, Sarahbanda explores the captivating dance rhythms of Cuba in a way that has never been heard before. The difference? Sarahbanda is the first salsa band to feature a French horn, and with their original compositions and stunning, exclusive re-arrangements of some of Cuba’s best-known songs, this band is taking the Cuban music scene by storm. This flavourful combination of Sarah Willis and some of Cuba’s most talented musicians creates a completely new sound that is fresh, innovative, danceable and simply irresistible.
