This music is funny but not innovative att all. There are just typical Cuban arrangements wiih some inserts of melodies by Bach. The melodies could have been children songs or march music and the result would have been similar.
Comparing Bach in Havana with Modern Jazz Quartett, Miles Davis or Play Bach is totaly wrong. (I love both Cuban music and Bach.)

It’s amazing how one man can still inspire such hot debate and interpretation. I found an interesting discussion on Pandalous about how using the pedal can alone change so much to a Bach piece. It’s here: http://www.pandalous.com/nodes/bach_and_the_pedal
