Un Cafecito for band by Dennis Llinás. Performed by the Band of the Golden West under the direction of Staff Sergeant Chester Howard at Central Kitsap Performing Arts Center on May 11th, 2024.
From the composer:
"The phrase 'Un Cafecito' means a little coffee. Growing up in Miami in our Cuban culture, it was customary for co-workers to bring to work an 8 oz cup filled with Cuban coffee (basically really strong and sweet espresso) and tiny shot cups. At certain points in the day, they would approach colleagues and pour a quick shot for them accompanied with the phrase, '¿Quieres un cafecito?' translating to 'Do you want some coffee?' Needless to say after that shot, you were ready for another few hours of daily activity."
