‘Good music and fine arts have prevailed amidst this terrible global health crisis,’ said the young Cuban musician and added that people are rediscovering, appreciating poetry and art pieces.’
The new music video is not the first gift that Patricio Amaro gives to his fans in these difficult times. Together with also singer-songwriter Alain Pérez, he gave the first virtual concert broadcast live on more than 150 Facebook pages attached to the Cuban Ministry of Culture and the Canal Caribe TV channel. ‘The concert had nearly 10 000 visualizations,’ he stressed.
