Olga Lucía Lago Muela

Died: January 25, 2021

Cristina is one of the members of the Trio Las Hermanas Lago.

The Trio Hermanas Lago became known on November 17, 1932 during an amateur show held at the Teatro Nacional de La Habana (today Gran Teatro de La Habana) in which it won first prize. It was initially made up of Cristina Eustaquia Lago Muela (1919-1974), first voice and accompanying guitar; Esperanza Lago Muela (1921-1954), second voice and maracas; and Inocenta Graciela de la Caridad Lago Muela (1918-1996), mandolin, guitar, voice and musical arrangements.

Olga Lucía began her artistic career in 1947, thus joining the first harmonic and female trio of America, Trio Las Hermanas Lago. At this time they incorporated "La flor de la canela" into their repertoire, a creation that helped define the trio's sonic personality and became the song with which they achieved their maximum popularity. By that date they had already made their television debut.
