Banda Bruselas is a Salsa project that has formed under the direction of Peter Van Marle as part of the Royal Conservatory Study Program. The band that consists of 4 singers, 5 horns, 1 violin and a 6 member-rhythm section, plays classical and modern salsa-hits. This year, Banda Bruselas delves into the fiery world of Cuban salsa and the glory days of the Fania era. Expect classics from greats such as Irakere, Celia Cruz, Willie Colón and Ray Barretto.
