Changui

Video Find of the Day

Guantánamo isn't just a prison operated by the United States on Cuban territory. It's also the surrounding province of Cuba, where this music originated. I love the bongo.

Not Enough Rumba

Video Find of the Day

A documentary about Rumba with no title or credits included. Frustrating in that, and in the way it ends too soon, but I was caught by the dancing.

¡ Afro-Cuban Rumba !

Two Cuban Dances

Video Find(s) of the Day

Two videos of Cuban dancing. The first is a beautiful solo street performance in Cuba. I love the way she mimes putting on makeup with the fan as a mirror.

The description of the next doesn't come right out and say where the video was filmed but the man dancing is Yaofei "David" Huo from Beijing, and is credited with having won a Cuban salsa championship.

I found a web address for David Huo of http://www.huoyaofei.com/index_e.htm but all it got me was my first Chinese 404 page!
