The Clebanoff Strings were created by the Russian born Herman Clebanoff (who emigrated to the US at a young age). At the end of the sixties decade several fabulous albums were issued - many of them having latin american music as a central theme. Here you can listen to a fine arrangement of Ernesto Lecuona's "Jungle drums". Lecuano - who composed more than 600 melodies (eg "Siboney", "Always in my heart" etc...) was a Cuban musician with many talents. He was a great pianist and the initiator of the "Lecuona Cuban Boys" - a band that performed his music all over the world.
In all his compositions the melody always came 'first' - and this is no different in his "Jungle drums". Enjoy !

  • Been listening to your channel over 90 minutes now, Walter. You are the master of beautiful music! Your taste is identical to mine, it's uncanny! I believe my 3 favorite Russian musicians are Tchaikovsky, Kostelanetz & Clebanoff! What a beautiful, global Cuban/Russian amalgam this is. Music is truly the international language !!! You are a prince, Walter! Thanks for all the beautiful music. And, yes, I could say this even without the two glasses of wine I've just consumed with my dinner!

  • @chkjns One glass of wine is good for you. Two are even better ;-)) Cheerio from Belgium !

  • Your videos are so outstanding, Walter! Thanks for all the great write-ups as well. Only thing missing is release years, but I know you include them when you can. Would you believe....... I started an Ernesto Lecuona playlist a few months ago? THis is now the 11th song on his playlist.

    Tubers will find the most beautiful music on youtube at your channel. Then they can come visit my 500 playlists for 300 artists, 111 lists for every year since 1900 & 100 more lists to explore!

  • @chkjns As our official national slogan says : "L'union fait la force" ("Eendracht maakt macht" in Flemish/Dutch) = "together we are stronger" ;-))

see all

  • Sir. You just make me cry

    The first time I hear this sound I was 14 years old

    With the Boston pops orchestra I’m not sure but the album name was Jungle Drums

    I was thinking that I never going to listen that sound again

    THANKS YOU
