Beginning in the early 1960s Gonzalez played with the band led by Enrique Jorrin, the man who popularized the cha-cha Fans Mourn Cuban Pianist Ruben Gonzalez Dec 9, 9:07 PM EST Pianist Ruben Gonzalez, who charmed fans the world over as part of the Buena Vista Social Club band, was remembered for the Cuban essence of his music Tuesday, one day after succumbing to respiratory and kidney failure Born Maximo Francisco Repilado Munoz, Compay Segundo was a guitarist and the band's lead singer "He has been appreciated not only on the island, but in the entire world," Vinueza said, adding that "he will always live on in the culture of this continent But when he placed his gnarled hands on the keyboard he could capture an audience with his forceful tropical rhythms "We will not forget Ruben Gonzalez as long as there are lovers of music Although Gonzalez gained international fame in recent years for his work with the "Buena Vista Social Club" series of albums and movie, "his work was much more than that," said Cuban musicologist Daniel Orozco " Singer Omara Portuondo, who performed with Gonzalez during his Buena Vista days, threw a bunch of white mariposas â€â€? Cuba's fragrant national flower â€â€? onto the grey casket before it was lowered into the ground In person, the smallish man with white hair was quite unassuming " More than 100 of Gonzalez's family members and friends traveled to Havana's historic Colon Cemetery late Tuesday afternoon for his funeral "He had in is style a way of phrasing and rhythm-making He gained fame as a solo musician with his albums "Introducing that was truly singular," Orozco said "Although his hands are now quiet on the keyboard, we will not stop listening to the music that Ruben Gonzalez left us," musicologist Lino Betancourt said during the final words at graveside They stayed together until Jorrin's death in the mid-1980s, and Gonzalez retired shortly thereafter Gonzalez had a chance meeting in 1996 in Havana with Ry Cooder, the man who produced the "Buena Vista Social Club" records of traditional Cuban "son" rhythms, and his career was reborn He moved to Havana to become a full-time musician in 1941, first recording with Arsenio Rodriguez, a pioneer in Cuban-rhythm orchestras of the time, then joining the Orquestra de Los Hermanos Gonzalez "represented a synthesis of what is Cuban in all of its expressions, as well as mastery on the piano," said Maria Elena Vinueza, director of music for Casa de las Americas, Cuba's center of Latin American culture The best-known "Buena Vista" figure, Compay Segundo, died at age 95 in July Born in the central province of Santa Clara in 1919, Gonzalez had originally wanted to be a doctor but wound up studying piano at a conservatory in eastern city of Cienfuegos in 1934 He was 84 Ruben Gonzalez" in 1997 and "Chanchullo," three years later "The senator certainly thinks it's a step in the right direction, and wishes it had happened sooner," said Tom Steward, a Coleman spokesman Unlike last month's crackdown against 261 alleged song sharers, the targets are being notified before lawsuits are filed Norm Coleman, R-Minn Many of the accused learned of the lawsuits when they were called by reporters The Recording Industry Association of America started mailing sternly worded warnings last week org A spokesman said Coleman was pleased at the new approach Last month's lawsuits also drew criticism from members of Congress, including Sen Targets Warned of Music Download Suits Oct 19, 7:02 AM EST The record industry's trade group has warned 204 people suspected of illegally swapping music over the Internet that it plans to file lawsuits against them Last month's targets included a 12-year-old girl and a grandmother who claimed she was falsely accused of sharing rap songs eff "In light of the comments we have heard, we want to go the extra mile and offer illegal file sharers an additional chance to work this out, short of legal action," said RIAA president Cary Sherman The advanced notice also could help the RIAA avoid embarrassment "Instead of continuing their legal crusade, the record labels should give their customers the option to pay a reasonable fee to continue file-sharing," said Wendy Seltzer, a staff attorney for the foundation The RIAA declined to identify the individuals, but said they were sharing an average of more than 1,000 songs on their computers So far, the RIAA says it has settled 64 suits and received an average of $3,000 per settlement â€â€?â€â€?â€â€? On the Net: RIAA: http://www com EFF: http://www The Electronic Frontier Foundation, a civil liberties group, says the RIAA is making a mistake by not listening to music fans It also has dropped one suit against a Boston woman whose computer could not run the peer-to-peer file-sharing program she was accused of running riaa The letters give the recipients 10 days to contact the RIAA to discuss a settlement and avoid a formal lawsuit |
