Trumpeter and salsa dancer Wilson Portuondo founded La Sonora Nuyorkina in 2010. One night while dancing, Wilson felt inspired to create a salsa band to cater to the growing diverse dance community, by bringing innovative arrangements and quality music to the dance scene. The members of La Sonora come from different parts of Latin America and North America: the Dominican Republic, Cuba, Puerto Rico, Nicaragua, Venezuela, and Ecuador, as well as the United States. Each musician brings their unique taste, talent, and experience to give La Sonora its vibrant sound. This combination of our talented and diverse musicians, plus our new arrangements, has worked tremendously.
