The tradition of descarga in Cuba is about unloading creatively in music - a special form where musicians can improvise and interact with more freedom. To this end, descargas often have stripped down arrangements of a repeating melody line, strong bass, and percussion. With this rhythmic groove solid, individual musicians have permission to solo, invent, and stretch out. In the spirit of descarga, a group of exceptional Cuban musicians assembled under the leadership of Santiago "Chaguito" Garzón, the former musical director of "Rumberos de Cuba" and "Clave Y Guaguancó. For this project Chaguito invited a group of longtime friends, many from his native Guantánamo. Included are musicians from such legendary groups as Conjunto ChappottÃn y Sus Estrellas, Orquesta Sublime, and Pachito Alonso y Sus Kini Kini.

The moves have evolved from a variety of Cuban dance traditions including rumba, orisha dance, son, cha cha cha, mambo, casino, plus the more modern influences of timba and hip hop. The steps, routines, and changes are initiated by a leader who can direct the action using a variety of techniques including: - calling out the name of the moves - hand gestures - demonstrating with their body Leaders repeat the steps and moves long enough for followers to catch on. Followers imitate what the leader is doing and change steps when the leader changes.

For an entire week the city's Malecon seafront drive was awash with hot rhythms, color, and gyrating bodies, along with the rain showers and spray from the sea. The wind and rain were overwhelming at times, but carnaval prevailed and became its own force of nature, blending with the elements. Parade groups known as comparsas, dominate carnaval, and are composed of a percussion section playing the conga rhythm, dancers in stunning costumes, and floats. Traditional groups, such as El Alacran (The Scorpion) have distinctive themes rooted in the cultural history of Cuba. Comparsas that have formed in more recent years, such as Los Guaracheros de Regla, rely on innovation and style to capture the public's heart. Carnaval in Havana is a tropical deluge of color, gyrating hips, and vibrant drumming; the life blood of the Cuban people - a marvel to behold.
