« La Salsa n’est pas un rythme. C’est un concept » (Willie Colón, pionnier du New York Sound dans les années 70). Cette musique de la rue, née dans la Grosse Pomme, est une musique d’immigrés. Une musique entrelaçant différents rythmes, propulsée par la diaspora latine, particulièrement cubaine et portoricaine, dans une tentative éperdue de se forger une identité propre, sur fond de revendications sociales. Aussi inspirée par la liberté d’improvisation du Jazz et du Rock, la Salsa met en valeur les rythmes afro-descendants qui ont pollinisé les folklores caribéens dès le 16e siècle. Elle défie tous les codes. C’est cette fureur de vivre, d’exister, de danser, que cultive Team Salsa Sextet à la ferveur des percussions et à la puissance des cuivres.

“Salsa is not a rhythm. It’s a concept” (Willie Colón, pioneer of the New York Sound in the 70s). This street music, born in the Big Apple, is the music of immigrants. A music that interweaves different rhythms, propelled by the Latin diaspora, particularly Cuban and Puerto Rican, in a frantic attempt to forge its own identity, against a backdrop of social demands. Also inspired by the improvisational freedom of Jazz and Rock, Salsa highlights the Afro-descendant rhythms that have pollinated Caribbean folklore since the 16th century. It defies all codes. Team Salsa Sextet cultivates this fury for living, for existing, for dancing, with the fervor of percussion and the power of brass.
