Wikipedia, 29 July 2019 (La Sonora Dinamita is a Colombian musical group that plays Cumbia, a South and Latin American music genre popular throughout Latin America. As one of the first Cumbia groups to reach international success, it is credited with helping to popularize the genre throughout Latin America and the world; the original orchestra was formed in 1960 in Cartagena de Indias under the direction of bandleader Lucho Argaín; it disbanded in 1963, but was re-formed in 1975 under the direction of Julio Ernesto Estrada "Fruko" Rincón, the artistic director of the Discos Fuentes record label; while the group's lineup has changed, it has always featured a strong female vocalist to accompany its ten-piece brass instrumentation; the group continues to perform worldwide in 2019 under Vilma Diaz, also known as "La Diva de la Cumbia")
