La Excelencia has been called "the band that brought salsa back to it’s roots". The response to "La Excelencia’s" salsa has created a sort of movement. Fans include young salseros who tend to dress with a more urban flavor and the "old-schoolâ salsa aficionados.

José Vázquez-Cofresi & Julián Silva formed "La Excelencia, a young orchestra with the Salsa Dura (Hardcore Salsa) sound. In 2006 "La Excelencia" began to record "Salsa con Conciencia" (salsa with a conscience), a 10 track original CD showcasing vast styles of Salsa Dura and Guaguanco. The is not only a danceable salsa CD, but as the title suggest the songs have been created with a conscience. The lyrics have meaning, and enlighten the community of every day situations found in our own lives or in the lives of others we may know.

The two-featured vocalist on the CD, Edwin Perez and Rene Leslie bring each track to life by adding their vocal talents and flavor. Perez sings the single "La Lucha", a song about every day struggles in life, which also features "Shanny". Julian Silvaâs arrangements give each track an urban, aggressive feel, yet not losing the true roots of salsa. Songwriters for the project include Jose Vazquez-Cofresi, Rene Leslie, and Julian Silva.

This award-winning orchestra has performed at music festivals such as "Midsummer Night Swing at Lincoln Center in New York, The New Orleans Jazz Festival", City Stages, 3 Rivers, Bay Fest, and "Austin Salsa Music Festival"; where they headlined with salsa legends Larry Harlow & Yomo Toro.
