Havana, Sep 29 (Prensa Latina) The tradition, sound, rhythm and flavor of Cuban music stands out today among the list of candidates for the 2020 Latin Grammys, with nominations from half a dozen groups from Cuba.

In this way, the Aragon Orchestra is once again among the candidates for the Latin Grammy Award, after its nomination in 2019 for participating in the Cuba Linda album, by the Dutch trumpeter Maite Hontele along with William Borrego, Roberton, Alain Perez and Osain del Monte.

Likewise, the Aragon Orchestra stands out in the Traditional Tropical Album category, representing Guantanamo's Changüi, with the production 'Este es Nuestro Changüi' (This is our Changüi). Omara Portuondo is also participating with the 'Mariposas' album, she was distinguished with the Award to the Musical Excellence in the previous edition, being the second Cuban personality to receive it after Juan Formell got it in 2013.
