Maraca

World class virtuoso Orlando "Maraca" Valle is arguably the most famous contemporary Cuban flutist in the world. Maraca was a child prodigy who started his musical career at the age of 16 as flute player in the group Irakere, led by Chucho Valdez. He has grown to become one of the most popular names in Latin and Afro-Cuban music. His music is a cocktail of fusion and energy that stems from the jazziest improvisations to the most danceable elements of Caribbean and popular Cuban music.
