| Maelo Santisteban |
In the industry of music you’ll find good musicians and some that are extraordinary talented, either by way of formal music education or just simply born with a natural talent. When using your vocals to express your emotions and quality of tone and pitch its just not an easy task. As I write about certain musicians theirs only a few I care to point out. I have listened and heard of all types of singers in the business stemming from Latin, Rock, Jazz and Country and its very competitive, with different styles and creativity from performers. In my last interview with Maelo Santisteban, I’ve come to know him as an interesting person who currently sings with La Fantastica Orchestra. Maelo was born in his native country of Puerto Rico in the home town of Guayama. He became interested in singing at very young age of eight years and was compelled to sing with his high school chorus as a lead singer, during a Christmas program. He progress in other venues through out his attendance at the University of Pontificial Catholic of Puerto Rico, where he directed La tuna Pionera. He then continue to sing with other groups as a Latin singer, managing the Puerto Rico symphony orquestra. Maelo portfolio and complete background of experience, skills adds to the formation of La Fantastica Orchestra. He just recently recorded Maria Merce and as you listen to his voice theirs a hint of opera, as he separates his composition in a particular way setting up his voice to sing salsa. He has become an artistic vocalist, he knows how to sing in great pitch, tone and octaves and once he grabs the melody of a song it becomes a perfect landing on the charts. Maelo has a perfect stage presents and in watching him at his best he is that of a great performer. I’m certainly waiting on the side lines to see what other songs he has for his listeners. The Latin music industry has awaited on a clever and talented singer for a while. I certainly can say that Maelo is arriving with great speed. We welcome him and hope to see him become the next singer on the charts, cultivating history and origins of his roots in to the industry. Maelo, we in the Latin salsa industry have been awaiting for a great singer and performer, providing due respect to all the great performers and singers that are not with us anymore, we embrace performer like Maelo Santisteban in the music industry, to keep us Latin musicians in a constant drive as once before.
