This debut CD, entitled Amindaj, contains 8 songs and was recorded at the beginning of 2011 in the Puig Studio in Bayamo, in the province of Granma in Cuba.
The international hits Chan Chan (Ĉan ĉan) by Francisco Repilado (Compay Segundo) and Son de la loma (Ili ja montanas) de Miguel Matamoros, translated and adapted by Maritza Gutiérrez, form a notable part of this album.
The popular songs Tiel la mondo iras, Mia voĉ´ pli laŭtos, Maria , Lasu la malĝojon flugi, and Ĉar ankoraŭ batas via kor´, were composed by Julián Hernández Angulo and arranged by Carlos Rafael Lolo Mendoza.
A new Cuban version of La bamba is an irresistible invitation to get up and dance.
These songs are vocally interpreted by Guillermo Sánchez, the group's lead singer, kaj Annelis Almarales, a guest performer on this recording.
The tres (three-string Cuban guitar), characterizing the band with its trademark sound of Cuban traditional music, is accompanied by violin, guitar, contrabass, maracas, guajo, congas, bongos and cowbell.
This album promotes traditional Cuban music in Esperanto.
Amindaj is not only a musical band, but also a cultural project including two dancers, Adita and Gricel, who decorate the group's musical performances by their dancing, with all under the general direction of Graciela Morgado Rodríguez.
This first album of Amindaj was enabled by the collaboration of Łukasz Żebrowski, Ana Montesinos, Roy McCoy, and many other Esperantists who in one way or another supported this project.
Heartfelt thanks to all.
