Descarga
A free improvisation session in salsa and Afro-Cuban jazz where musicians break away from the written arrangement and play freely over a base rhythm. A descarga can stretch for twenty minutes, with each player trading solos. The descargas of the 1950s and 60s in New York and Havana helped define what salsa sounds like today.
