The CuBop City Big Band of Lucas van Merwijk brings the Latin music, as it sounded in the New York Palladium in the 50’s, back to life. ‘Impeccable interplay, exciting, a strong drive, a party!’, is what the Parool newspaper wrote about them. The band acclaimed international fame with performances and arrangements of Machito, Beny Moré, Arsenio Rodriguez and Tito Puente, to name a few.
