Dear Sir,
 
From the 24th to the 28th of June of this year will take place the IX International Festival Danzon Habana, organized by the Association of Musicians of the Union of Writers and Artists of Cuba (UNEAC), dedicated on this occasion to the theme, El bolero en el danzón.
 
During this grand event, important theatres and locations of the capital city of Havana will feature outstanding groups rendering homage to artists who have achieved so much in the style of danzón as well as the style of bolero.
 
For the organizing committee it is an honor to invite Charanga Tropical to participate in the activities of the festival.
 
For reasons of limited finances to cover the cost of travel of travel and accommodation, it is important that these expenses be covered by you.

Hoping to receive confirmation before the 30th of April in order to include you in the corresponding program, we reiterate the pleasure that we would have to count on the presence of your prestigious group during those days [of the festival].
 
Receive our most cordial salutations,
 
Best Regards,
