Very moving it is to be in an audience, where it is the custom to sing with the master.
Silvio Rodriguez Is the Walt Whitman of the Cuban revolution. His songs are deeply rooted in the humanism which was described by Che Guevara in El Socialismo Y El Hombre En Cuba
Our utopia is still very far away, but its music has always been with us.
It is better to be Brechtian than Manichean.

Fenomenal. Dinos como fue posible que Silvio llegara a hacer un concierto
en EE UU. Me imagino que es un evento bastante historico, no? Gracias.
