== Biography ==
Born in pre-revolutionary Havana with the gift of music to affluent, often distant parents, the young ''Cecilio'' (later to become ''Sergio De Karlo'') grew up on a large estate outside of central Havana. With his upbringing left largely to the care of his nanny, Sergio's earliest musical experiences were rooted in the techniques of ''Afro-Cuban rhythms''. These tribal rhythms combined with the traditional music of Spain, constituted the advent of the Cuban Bolero.
When Isabel takes Sergio to a local celebration in a nearby village, he is exposed to images and sounds that he's never imagined. He watches with keen anticipation as the eerie sounds of pulsating drumbeats and rhythmic chanting fill the night air with excitement and confusion. A fever pitch ensues as dancers sway to the rhythmic pulse of the drums. An enormous bonfire crackles in the background, with red-orange flames shooting skyward. The gathering continues throughout the night, with young Cecilio taking in every moment and every sound. His senses are stirred as he encounters his first taste of the ''Afro-Cuban rhythm''.
''Cecilio'' tries to incorporate these rhythms into the Spanish ballads that he plays on the family piano, but can't quite make the connection. When ''Yoyo'', the son of a local cook who works at the family estate, comes by to visit his father, Sergio implores the young boy to play the African drum that he carries. As the boy begins to play, Sergio adapts his own classical playing style to the drumbeats and together the two youngsters create their first Bolero. Cecilio is so taken with this new sound that he begins to convert all of the Spanish ballads that he knows into this new musical style.
