In 1996 a group of Mali's leading musicians were to collaborate on an album with some of Cuba's most brilliant singers and instrumentalists. The Malians never made it to Cuba, but the recording went ahead without them and become the multi-million-selling The Buena Vista Social Club. AfroCubism gives us a taste of the album that never was. Musicians from the original, thwarted project are joined by a virtuosic line-up of additional talent from Mali and Cuba. This major world-music event tosses elements of Cuban and African music in the air and lets them fall in entrancing new patterns.
