I would say it's not him, I don't know who it could be.<br /><br />Must have been a great experience meeting Odilio Urfé and taking some lessons with 'Barretico'.<br /><br />Netherlands has a lot of great musicians over there, both Cuban and non Cuban!<br />Thank you for leaving your warm note.<br />Enjoy!<br /><br />Regards,<br />Mark Sanders / N.Y.C.Fidels Eyeglasseshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08348047244243899789noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9203041668883109940.post-12144851429619764472011-05-20T15:54:01.264-04:002011-05-20T15:54:01.264-04:00Marvelous site!

I just discovered you (looking for Septeto Turquino), thank you for your generous and beautiful work here!<br /><br />I had the pleasure of meeting Odilio Urfé personally, back in 1986. He played with his Charanga Nacional de Concierto back then, and introduced me to Guillermo Barreto (for some danzón-lessons on timbales). Question I have: is Barreto playing on your 'Cuba baila' LP? <br />anyway, I have recommended your site to some great aficionados here in the Netherlands, incl. my brother André, himself a great percussionist in Cuban styles.<br />thank you again, <br />many greetings from Deventer, Holland<br />un beso de Vera Groenverahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08990907746519690316noreply@blogger.com
