Thus, hopeless and tired, the great issue in our environment is the unbearable situation and the massive exodus of the last year that already exceeds in numbers the sum of the largest migratory crises that have happened in Cuba after the revolutionary triumph.

But with this apparently infinite capacity for endurance, and certain that music will always be a kind of oasis, even in the worst of times, we ended this summer listening to what sounded best from our music.<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"video-container\"><iframe title=\"Spotify Embed: Gonzalo Rubalcaba\" style=\"border-radius: 12px\" width=\"100%\" height=\"352\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen allow=\"autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; fullscreen; picture-in-picture\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/artist\/0qEGZBnqUgcVlTE7EEjR2F?utm_source=oembed\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cuban pianist and composer Gonzalo Rubalcaba launched <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Turning Point\/ Trio D&#039;ete<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, his most recent record production.
