FESTIVAL TOROS Y SALSA - DAX. SEPTEMBER 7TH-9TH, 2018 Dax - France. Tickets: 25€ - 90€ Toros y Salsa was born in 1995 from the shared passion of two amateurs for the fiesta “brava". This adjective, which is part of the vocabulary of bullfighting, refers to the bravery and caste of the bull. It is also used by salseros to characterize authentic and uncompromising music. From this analogy, was born the idea to create a marriage of heart between these two cultures. The festival owes its unique identity to its original programming based on discoveries, creations and the now famous "descargas". A village of casetas serves as a showcase for the stage and allows all audiences to eat or share a drink in a friendly atmosphere throughout these 3 days of free concerts. From September 7th to 9th, Dax will meet you for a new musical escapade on the shores of the Adour and in the shade of the paths of the Théodore Denis Park with the swaying rhythms of salsa.

En junio anterior Oscar rindió como de costumbre homenaje a Hector Lavoe, por conmemorarse años de su muerte. “Héctor Lavoe murió el lunes 29 de junio de 1993 a las 11:45 de la mañana”, suceso que recuerda con la exactitud que marcan los hechos tristes, pero a pesar del dolor, con satisfacción y orgullo, menciona que su hijo Gustavo de solo 29 años, antes de entrar a escena repite un ritual especial: “ANTES DE ENTRAR A DIRIGIR EN NUEVA YORK ALGUIEN LE PREGUNTÓ A GUSTAVO: ‘”MAESTRO, ¿QUÉ ESTÁ ESCUCHANDO? ¿TCHAIKOVSKY?
