The Last Song, posthumous album by singer Suylén Milanés, enriches Cuba's discographic catalog, under the label of record companies Bis Music and PM Record.

From the Fábrica de Arte Cubano, in this capital, the album was released, which evokes the prolific trajectory of the also cultural promoter a year after her death, as on January 30, 2022 she took her last breath after half a century of life among musical staffs and sounds.

The Last Song, a phonogram recorded by the performer in the epilogue of her existence, features the talent of Roberto Perdomo in production, musical direction and arrangements, as well as the work of Esteban Puebla, Luis Durán and Julio Cesar Vilarrubia.

Likewise, those who intervened in the conception of the album's image were art director Judith Díaz Henquén, photographer Pablo M. Rentería Milanés and Chabeli Farro, who expressed the pride of belonging to this team and "being able to contribute a visual element to Suylén's world, composed not only by her music, but also by her pictorial work, so fresh and mystical, which allowed me to explore it, connect with it and create from it".

In the selection made by the artist appears a sample of eight songs signed by Perdomo, Raúl Torres and the renowned singer-songwriter Pablo Milanés, father of Suylén, and who also passed away last year after almost eight decades of life and hundreds of compositions in his repertoire.

In that sense, the collection includes the titles Between the Soul and Silence, I Don't Ask You, Unknown, I Want to Put the Earth Under My Feet, Mother-of-Pearl Cross, Dressed in Sea, May Love Go, together with Daima M. Falcón and The Last Song.

A graduate of the School of Art Instructors and the Ignacio Cervantes School of Music, the performer and promoter worked as a vocalist in the groups Adalberto Álvarez y su Son, Monte de espuma, Aries and Tesis de menta.

At the end of the twentieth century she began her career as a solo artist, recorded several albums and collaborated with renowned singer-songwriters such as Carlos Varela, Yussa, José Luis Barba, Raúl Torres and her sisters Haydée and Lynn Milanés.

Regarding her professional activity, she performed tours and concerts in Spain, Mexico, Venezuela, Ecuador and Portugal and participated in the recording and presentation of several albums by her father, while defending the family legacy and serving as Executive Director of the Cultural Institution PM Records, where she successfully created and managed national and international festivals.
