Biographical NoteReturn to Top
Carlos Manuel (AKA "Charlie" Palmieri) (1927 – 1988), born in South Bronx, New York City, was a renowned bandleader, salsa pianist, and musical director of salsa music. From 1947 to 1953, Palmieri played in a band with Tito Puente at the Copacabana Club. During the 1950s, he played with various other bands as well. Palmieri later formed a band called "Charanga La Duboney" which became popular in the United States in the 1960s when later band member Johnny Pacheco added flute to the strings of the violins in Palmieri's band. Palmieri had several Latino hits during this time. When the Charanga craze declined in popularity, Palmieri switched to the new trend, the Boogaloo, by replacing the flute and violins with three trumpets and two trombones. He also dropped the word "Charanga" from his bands' name and it became known simply as "La Duboney". In the 1970s, Palmieri taught and lectured about Latin music and culture at various educational institutions and played the organ.
