Cuban singer-songwriter Santiago Feliú will give us an extensive sample of his most recent compositions and a few other tunes better known by his followers. Santiago —belonging to the movement known as New Trova— has transcended this to reach the “Novísima Trova.” The concert will take place at the Salón Maxim Rock on Wednesday, January 20, at 9:00 p.m. It will be a good occasion to hear excellent lyrics.

Composer, guitarist and singer Heidy Igualada will be presented on Friday, January 15, at the Palacio del Segundo Cabo. Her songs are of a soft, sweet and lively poetic style, free of the violent tones typical of this modern era; yet, nor are they hermetic metaphors insulated from the world us.
