Singer Claudio Rodríguez with a Rising Career

February 6, 2022

Claudio Rodríguez was invited one day to sing in a convent and he did so for more than 400 people. That's how this career began, advancing every day.

Even he couldn't imagine the impact of his voice on the public and on great masters of our sonic art.

He had never attended a music school, however, with his beautiful timbre and his pitch he manages to accommodate various genres. He began a story of successes on national and international radio, where he quickly established himself as a breakthrough artist less than a decade ago and continues to rise.

During this time, Claudio perfected singing techniques with excellent teachers, such as tenor Edilio Hernández, founder of the National Lyric Theater of Cuba.

The trajectory of the young Havana vocalist confirms that what matters is not arriving first, but doing so with the highest quality. Today no one doubts why José Valladares, Germán Nogueira, and Wilfredo Calderón created titles especially so that this young man could delight us with his melodic ability.

Listening to Claudio Rodríguez is stealing stars from the night or light from midday. His gift for harmonizing is accompanied by restraint and elegance, as if it were an expert with countless stages traversed.

That his voice appears in Germán Nogueira's anthological records indicates the solidity of his work. No less significant was his participation in the First Latin American Virtual Bolero Encounter, convened by Venezuela in 2020.

His performances have multiplied since audiences began requesting him not only in radio and television programs, but also in theaters and other venues, among which his integration into the Germán Nogueira Cultural Project at the nightclub ARTEX Barbaram Pepito´s Bar stands out.

The current pandemic has partially limited the rapid advance of this virtuoso, who confesses that he loves to sing. Nevertheless, his talent and commitment as a people's artist have reached several television spaces, press media, social networks, and even communities.

The surprising voice of Claudio Rodríguez has just marked a milestone in his career, achieving that on digital platforms such as Spotify ─in which his songs are marketed by Cuban record label Bis Music─ accumulated more than 40 thousand visits.
