Orquesta Riverside (known as Orquesta Havana Riverside between 1938 and 1941) was a highly successful Cubanbig band that was amongst the most popular ensembles of the 1940s and 1950s.[1] Founded in 1938, it was originally directed by local musician Enrique González Mantici [de] until 1945. Other directors were Antonio Sosa (1945–47), Pedro Vila (1947–57), Adolfo Guzmán (1957–62), Argelio González and Nelson Arocha.[2]
In 1993, the ensemble disbanded after a long period lacking success. Years later, Raúl Nacianceno Miyares, a former saxophonist in the band, revived the name of the band with young music graduates, playing the same arrangements as 50 years ago.[3]
