That same year, producer Frankie Gregory gave Gilberto the opportunity to participate in the recording of “Homanaje a Eddie Palmieri” by the Puerto Rico All-Stars and in various live shows with this distinguished group.
The 80’s were truly the turning point of his career. He was a member of Tommy Olivenica’s band from 1979 to 1981, with whom he made one recording. Then, in 1981, he joined Willie Rosario’s band with whom he recorded six albums between 1981 and 1986.
In August of 1986, Gilberto Santa Rosa made his debut as a soloist and director of an orchestra with the help of Combo Records, Rafael Ithier and producer Ralph Cartagena, for whom he recorded four albums: “Good Vibrations,” “Keeping Cool,” “De Amor y Salsa” and “Salsa en Movimiento.”
In May of 1990, he debuted in one of the most important venues of his native Puerto Rico: the Centro de Bellas Artes in a concert with Luis Enrique.

In the mid-90s, Gilberto Santa Rosa left Combo Records and joined the CBS label, which today is known as Sony Discos. His first production for that label was “Punto de Vista,” which went platinum.
His next albums were 1991’s “Perspecitva”, 1993’s “A dos tiempos de un tiempo” (an homage to the great Tito Rodriguez) and 1993’s “Nace Aqui”, all of which earned him Gold and Platinum records and other prizes like Agueybana, Paoli, Haca, Tu Música, Ronda, and various nominations at Premio Lo Nuestro.
In 1993, his eight sold-out shows at Centro de Bellas Artes broke records for tropical artists at that venue. He performed at the NY Salsa Festival at Madison Square Garden, produced by Ralph Mercado, where he earned critical acclaim by the local press. In addition, he performed at two salsa festivals in Mexico City and the Festival of Jazz and Latin Music in New Orleans.
At the end of 1994, Gilberto Santa Rosa released “De Cara Al Viento,” a production of 13 songs, and in them for the first time, he added arrangements for strings without losing his trademark style. “De Cara Al Viento” is an album that Gilberto himself feels is one of his most complete recordings.

(i.e., what is the booking fee to hire GILBERTO SANTA ROSA for an event?)
(i.e., what is GILBERTO SANTA ROSA booking fee to perform at an event?)
Official booking fees for GILBERTO SANTA ROSA, or any other celebrity, are determined based on a number of factors and may change at any time without prior notice.
Factors influencing pricing vary and may include date, location, type of event, whether a private party or a public concert, the artist’s calendar, whether the artist is on tour or not, how well tickets are selling at the artist’s concerts, the current demand for the artist’s music, market activity, etc.
As you might expect, the more in-demand the artist is, the more buyers are prepared to pay. Of course, this causes the artist’s price to increase as the artist becomes more popular or decrease when the artist becomes less popular.
Exclusive agents with exclusive representation frequently quote a range instead of a specific price, since changes can occur at any time. Generally, the artist’s manager has a role in the decision to accept any particular offer from a talent buyer.
