The Buena Vista Social Orchestra Booking Agency Profile

Book The Buena Vista Social Orchestra for your next corporate event, function, or private party.
Few people outside of the specialized world music audience initially paid much attention to the Buena Vista Social Club album's beautifully crafted songs and cozy, acoustic rhythms upon its release. Then, something remarkable happened. A few astute critics gave the record a stellar review, but even while their compliments did not hurt Buena Vista, they are unable to account for what transpired next. Positive reviews drive up sales in the early going, but unless it's a major pop release supported by a large-scale TV marketing campaign, the general trend is that interest thereafter gradually wanes.
Rather, Buena Vista's sales figures increased week after week, almost entirely due to word-of-mouth until the album reached a critical mass. Everyone who heard the record was not only enthralled with Buena Vista's captivating magic, but also motivated to play or suggest the album to everyone they knew. It was one of those rare recordings that sounded completely current yet eternal, eschewing the whims of fashion and fad. You had to have a heart of stone to resist being carried away by the romantic sentiments and unbridled exuberance of the music once you heard it.
The crossover success of Buena Vista led to a Grammy Award, and renowned filmmaker Wim Wenders was inspired to create an award-winning feature film about the event. With over eight million copies sold worldwide to date, the album is the best-selling Cuban record in history. Buena Vista has turned into "world music's equivalent of The Dark Side of the Moon," according to one critic..
