Cuban artists unite in online musical initiative against the threat of COVID-19

March 18, 2020

A group of Cuban musicians joins the initiative of several international creators to hold concerts via the internet to bring a message of hope to the millions of people who today find themselves confined to their homes around the world due to the advance of the new COVID-19.

The renowned singer, composer, arranger and multi-instrumentalist David Blanco, promoter of the initiative in Cuba, will perform a recital today at six in the evening on Instagram Live.

The date will also host performances by Jan Cruz at four in the afternoon on Facebook Live, William Vivanco at seven, and New World at seven thirty; and will end with sessions by Pepe Gavilondo at eight in the evening on Facebook Live, and DJ Landeep at nine thirty.

For tomorrow Thursday, recitals are scheduled with Degnis Boffil at six in the evening, followed by Eduardo Sandoval at seven and Idania Valdés at eight, as the final of the presentation schedule for the online initiative, started by David Blanco last Sunday.

We regret suspending the concerts but the health of everyone is more important, Blanco explained on his social networks; "simple, acoustic, natural and sincere," this is how he characterized this concert that he broadcast from his home.
