La Sonora Santanera

Day 247 of My Italian Learning Journal*

_____________________

This evening I was ordering an item online for our granddaughter, and then I searched for music by an international band I heard live many years ago when I was in college. La Sonora Santanera performed at a public dance in my city, as they toured the United States. The musical arrangements are simple and harmonious. I still enjoy the brassy trumpets, and Spanish lyrics. (Corrections for any part of my practice Italian script below are welcome.)

Ascolta Questo:

• Ho ascoltato per la prima volta l'orchestra La Sonora Santanera quando ero al college, molti anni fa.
