Hanine Y Son Cubano

Hanine Y Son Cubano is a music group formed in 1999 that merges Cuban music and Arabic music.

It was in the early 1990s, when he lived in Havana, that Greek-Lebanese Michel Elefteriades came up with the music concept that led in 1999 to the formation of Hanine Y Son Cubano, the Arabo-Cuban music genre.

It was while he was sitting in a cafe in Havana, surrounded by Afro-Cuban sounds, that Elefteriades began singing a classic of the Arabic music, "Ya Habibi ta ala" of the Arab diva Asmahan. Elefteriades spent two years trying to achieve this project.

The band gave birth to a few albums, namely "Arabo-Cuban" distributed by “Warner”, "10908 km", and "The Festivals Album: Baalbeck & Beiteddine".
