Pablo Menéndez, born in Oakland, California, went to Cuba in 1966 as a 14 year old to study music at the Escuela Nacionale de Arte in Havana and has lived in Cuba ever since. He is the leader of a truly unique band, Mezcla, which plays music that is a combination of rumba, son, jazz and rock and roll.

Pablo was joined by an all star group of US based Cuban jazz musicians plus Melecio Magdaleyo, a Bay Area reed player who plays with many of the Bay Area latin jazz and salsa groups. The band played two sets of music which reflect the diverse musical interests of the leader - a latin jazz standard by Chucho Valdes, a son by Cachao, some latinized American jazz standards, a song by Irving Berlin (famous American pop music composer), a blues song and other types of Cuban music.

Pablo talked of a new era which hopefully will see the return of cultural exchanges between the US and Cuba.

Pablo invited his mom, Barbara Dane to join him for a song by jazz singer pioneer King Pleasure. Barbara Dane is a blues and folk singer who has performed all over the world and was one of the first American musicians to travel to Cuba after the revolution in defiance of the American ban on travel to Cuba.
