1964. At the height of the cold war, the Cuban government invited ten musicians from Mali to come and study music. In a fabulous mix of sonorities, they created the first-ever Afro-Cuban group: the Maravillas de Mali. Fifty years later, an equally crazy project emerged: to re-form that legendary group!
