The Buena Vista Orchestra live in Arvada

Experience The Buena Vista Orchestra live on July 9th

The Buena Vista Orchestra will be performing at the Arvada Center For The Arts And Humanities on July 9, 2026. The ensemble specializes in recreating the vibrant sound of Cuban *son* and *danzón* music, styles popular in the early to mid-20th century. Their repertoire draws heavily from the recordings of the original Buena Vista Social Club musicians, aiming to preserve and revitalize this important musical heritage. The orchestra typically features traditional Cuban instrumentation including tres, guitar, bass, percussion, piano, and vocals.
