FROOTS MAGAZINE
Cuban culture has a privileged position in all social spheres when it comes to expression. The tireless traveler Decima (Ten-line stave), takes root and develops itself throught the guajira cubana (cuban folk song), winding the countryside, borrowing the praires, the dusstorms and the gleams, in order to cosntruct a screen of verses in the density of both the suffering and the pleasure. Its exponents, men and women, constitute a decisive link in the musical evolutionary process that takes place in hispanic countries, enrichening the extensive heritage of international creatin and interpretation.
