Cuban-Venezuelan Trovatours Meeting in Havana

About 20 Cuban and Venezuelan trovatours are meeting since Saturday in Havana in a binational meeting devoted to trova music, organized by the Canto de Todos project, coordinated by the Paraguayan Ricardo Flecha.

Venezuelan Alejandro Ali Primera, Pinky and Amaranta Perez and Cubans Vicente Feliu, Charly Salgado and Raul Verdecia, among others also participate, seeking to continue bringing together several generations of songwriters in Iberoamerica.

The singers are performing at schools and universities as the school for arts teachers in Matanzas, 98 km from the capital, and the Agricultural University Mayabeque.

The meeting's main objective is communication and fraternization between the singers from both countries and will end on October 10 with a big concert honouring the Argentinian-Cuban Ernesto Che Guevara.
