Tribute of Orchestra Aragon

Last Saturday we got a treat at Casino Miami, guests were treated to the Music of Orchestra Aragon.

Orchestra Aragón was created in 1939 by the noted violinist Orestes Aragón and first performed in and around Cienfuegos, its city of origin. In 1946, at the age of 19, Rafael Lay, violinist and composer, became director of the orchestra until 1982, when he lost his life in an automobile accident.
