About
Meet the Sarahbanda -- the Cuban band with a twist!
Formed as part of the popularMozart y Mamboproject by Sarah Willis of the Berlin Philharmonic, the Sarahbanda explores the captivating Cuban dance rhythms in a way never heard before. How? By featuring an instrument not typically included in traditional Cuban band music -- the French horn. The sound of Sarah's horn combined with Cuban grooves played by some of Cuba's most talented musicians creates an exciting and passionate group unlike any other. With their exclusive new arrangements of some of Cuba's best known songs such asChan ChanandSandunguera,original compositions by members of the band, and some classical-meets-Cuban surprises, the Sarahbanda brings a whole new sound -- fresh, innovative, irresistible and one you simply have to get up and dance to!

Awards and reviews
November 2024
The playing is immaculate throughout, with Alejandro Aguiar and Adel González on percussion, all held in place by Carlos García on Bass...Willis’s ever nuanced and characterful playing brings its own slant to the variety of Cuban popular dance explored here, and some very fruitful conversations with Lombida’s saxophone.
October 2024
Willis’s tone is ravishing throughout, and her Cuban colleagues don’t let her down…At a time when life seems to be increasingly complicated and stressful, Sarahbanda offer a welcome opportunity to swing, sway and simply float away.
