Anacaona
All-female Cuban dance band. The original orchestra was founded in 1930s Havana by Cuchito Castro and her sisters. Eventually, all 11 sisters joined the band.
The band was formed during the Machado era when the political situation led to university closings, forcing Cuchito Castro to abandon her studies and her plan to start a dental practice. Instead, in 1932, she chose a different career by proposing a female septet to challenge the male-dominated son music. At the time, it was believed women were not capable of playing son.
