Hector Calderon es el director musical del grupo folklorico Yuba-Ire fundado en el 1998. El grupo interpreta diferentes estilos de rumba cubana ademas de bomba y plena puertorriquena. Yuba-Ire se ha presentado en diferentes festivales y actividades culturales alrededor de Puerto Rico, E.U y Venezuela.Founded in 1998 in Puerto Rico, the sole mission of Yuba Iré is to interpret the diverse folkloric music of the Afro-Caribbean. And while the core of the material on ¡Esta Es Mi Rumba! is clearly rumba and folklore Cubana (guaguancó, yambú, columbia, palo), their repertoire does cast a wider net by encompassing the folklore of Puerto Rico and elsewhere. Sicá, yubá, cuembé, holandé, seis corridos as well as la plena, güiro, bembé, abakuá and comparsa are performed at their live performances as well. Directed by percussionist Hector Calderón Torres, Yubá Iré is also made up of Diego Centeno, Jose Camara, Victor Emmanuelli, Edgardo Hernandez, David Atanasio, Paoli Mejias, Felipe Del Valle, Samuel Gascot and others. With clarity of vision and a soul of fire, Taller Folklorico Yubá Iré walks a path that is inhabited by the spirit of by Yoruba Andabo, Los Muñequitos de Matanzas, Grupo Afro Cuba, Paracumbé and the Familia Cepeda. Pretty good company. One of the best folkloric projects of the year. Very Highly Recommended.
