Janet Dacal 'My Standards'

My parents played Cuban music because it was a way for them to remain tethered to their home of Cuba. Their cuban boleros (slow-tempo Latin music) kept their sense of “self” alive too. Their sacrifices, undying love and constant support were my permission slip to fulfill my dreams. Part of immigrant culture is that we believe in dreams. We believe in the sparkly magic and promise of America. For me, one of those dreams was to be a Broadway performer and another whose box had remained unchecked until now, was recording an album. 

This album honors my parents and the rich inheritance of their culture.  It honors my very first music teachers, both Cuban and American. It honors all of the musical masters that came before me.  Mostly, this album is for you...MUSIC. Thank you for saving me time and time again and for outliving us all. - Janet Dacal
