For nearly six decades, Los Van Van has carried Cuban music across borders the way rivers carry memory — steadily, inevitably, reshaping the landscapes they pass through. On a May evening in Bogotá, the orchestra founded by the late Juan Formell brought their songo, timba, and salsa to the Royal Center, continuing a journey that has made them not merely a band but a cultural institution. Their presence in Colombia is a reminder that music, at its most alive, does not belong to one place — it belongs to whoever is willing to move.
