TRIBUTO A XAVIER CUGAT

Xavier Cugat, o "Rei da Rumba", ainda nos anos 20 começou com sua carreira de "bandeleader", especializando-se ritmos latino-americano, tais como rumbas, cumbias, boleros, guarachas, valsas mexicanas, congas etc. Descoberto pelo cinema norte-americano, rapidamente alcançou prestígio internacional. Violinista com formação clássica, ao optar pela música popular resolveu investir na música dançante, direcionando sua orquestra para ser uma das mais conceituadas neste quesito. Nasceu na cidade catalã de Gerona, Espanha, em 1900, e faleceu em Barcelona, no ano de 1990.
