Orquesta La Leyenda is a traditional Latin big band performing “old school” Latin dance music.  It has its roots in the repertoire of the bands from Havana and New York City that thrived during those exciting times when America first became enthralled by the music of its Latin American neighbors.  The music was played by small combos, by medium-sized conjuntos, or by big bands.  These bands played the hotels, resorts and dance halls where America learned to dance the Mambo, Guaracha, Rumba, and Cha-Cha-Cha, and witnessed Tango dancing for the first time.  The bands brought an element from the streets of Spanish Harlem with them — where a rhythm that is insatiable in urging its listeners to dance until the sun is well into the sky was born — Salsa!

When you are dancing to La Leyenda, you are enjoying the energy of musicians who have a great reverence for this music, the musicians who played it, and its roots.  We are honored to keep alive the traditions that are at the root of so much of the Latin music that still flourishes today.  When the party gets wound up and no one wants to stop dancing, you'll know that La Leyenda has done it again.  You have been transported back to an era where bands like La Leyenda could keep you dancing all night.
