Mexico City, July 15 (RHC)-- Poet and singer-songwriter Amaury Perez returns to Mexico for a series of concerts, including a July 23rd tribute to Cuba's National Rebellion Day.

According to the Ministry of Culture, his presentation is part of the celebrations scheduled for Mexico City and other states for the 69th anniversary of the attack on the Moncada and Carlos Manuel de Céspedes barracks on July 26, 1953.

The concert in Los Pinos, former presidential house, will be at the Heliport of the Cultural Complex sponsored by the Ministry of Culture.

Amaury said from Havana that he was very happy to return to this country after eight years.

He recalled that the first time he was in Mexican territory was in 1978, and now, for this recital "they asked me for the repertoire of songs, but what is sung, or not sung, I will see on the way, remember that the concert is not made by the artist, but by the public, so let's see".

The director of the Cultural Complex, Homero Fernández Pedroza, who was accompanied by the cultural attaché of the Cuban Embassy, Waldo Leyva, pointed out that a great effort is being made to create national and foreign cultural circuits, since the right to culture has no borders.

Cuba is a country that the Mexican government has always supported and continues to support, said the official.

The context of this concert is the 69th anniversary of the assault on the Moncada, a historic event that started the Cuban Revolution and is in line with the foreign policy of the President of the Republic, Andrés Manuel López Obrador, which speaks of how Mexico considers Cuba, stressed the director of Artistic Programming, Gabino Palomares.

"Cuba is the country of dignity because with so many injustices and blockades they have wanted to do away with it, but its people have demonstrated their patriotism and humanity," he added.

For his part, poet Waldo Leyva thanked the Ministry of Culture and Los Pinos for organizing the day for Cuba, paying homage to July 26, "a date that is also Latin American".

Leyva recalled that Amaury is part of the core group that includes Silvio Rodríguez, Pablo Milanés, Noel Nicola, Vicente Feliú, Augusto Blanca and Sara González, who created for Cuba, Latin America and for the culture of the Spanish language a song and a poetry that transcends, sings to time, to the homeland and to the future.
