Details:
Recorded in Havana, this is a Santería ceremony to honor and evoke Elegguá. Elegguá is known as a multisided trickster and gatekeeper. A ''güiro'', which refers to the shaker instrument also refers to the ceremony and style of music. These events occur frequently in Havana using güiros (also refered to as abwes and chekeres), a conga and a bell (usually played on a hoe blade call ''guataca''). This type of ceremony is very similar to what some call a ''bembe''. This CD is over 79 minutes long and covers the most important aspects of this event. Also available as a two CD set of the entire ceremony.
