Composer, vocalist and current director of the Orquesta Novel Manana Club. He began in music at the age of 7 at the Manuel Saumell school in Havana, specializing in violin.
He completed his studies at the intermediate-superior level at the Amadeo Roldán Conservatory in the capital. His academic training as a violinist may have been what initially motivated Pedro Lázaro Ordóñez (Papucho) to follow the path of jazz, a genre that always attracted him. But after finishing his studies at the Amadeo Roldán Conservatory, some circumstances and his own roots pushed him down a path more linked to bass and percussion that moves waistlines.
Popular dance music finally prevailed and then the idea of creating a large-format group prevailed, including young people recently graduated from musical academies, with the idea of promoting Cuban native rhythms more strongly. This is how Manana Club emerged, which is almost 10 years old.
