After having been a featured vocalist in Willie Rosario's orchestra, Gilberto Santa Rosa emerged as a salsa star on his own beginning in 1986 on Combo Records. He is one of the most esteemed, and certainly one of the most tradition-minded, soneros to rise to fame in the '80s, and his popularity and acclaim only increased in subsequent decades, as did his stateliness. His style of salsa isn't easily categorized, for he often changes approach from one album to the next. His straight-ahead, dance-oriented albums (e.g., Perspectiva [1991], Auténtico [2004]) as well as his eclectic ones (Esencia [1996], Expresión [1999]) tend to be his most critically celebrated. On the other hand, his lavish albums (A Dos Tiempos de un Tiempo [1992], De Cara al Viento [1994]) as well as his primarily romantic ones (Viceversa [2002], Directo al Corazón [2006]) have been his broadest-selling. Consequently, Gilberto Santa Rosa is one of the more discussed salsa artists of his time. He is El Caballero de la Salsa, or in English, the Gentleman of Salsa. Don't miss this rare opportunity to see this legend in Chicago! - El Caobo Internacional Promotions
