¡ Que calor! La fiesta de Gildor!

With ¡Que calor! La fiesta de Gildor, music and dancing heat up the atmosphere and melt away the winter doldrums! For 90 minutes, Gildor Roy invites you to join the multi-coloured crowd at the Medley and celebrate Latin-American culture. This special serves up a hearty helping of the richness of this culture through very special encounters and a colourful presentation. Through the songs of his latest album, this adopted son of the Dominican Republic takes us on a voyage of discovery of the roots of this hot and vibrant music, along with the secrets of a community that lives with this music every day. He is joined by several guest artists who help him get the dancers moving to the rhythm of salsa, merengue, and bachata.
