\"Sublime\" is the word. The trova that is played in the center of Cuba, at least since the mid-nineteenth century, that was the land of proletarians, of people who worked during the day (the Tobacco Crown, the Pharmaceutical Companioni) to surrender then to the nocturnal bohemia, continues being tremendously sublime. In their language, in their ways of interpreting music, even in the delicacy with which their performers dress. In that wake has been uploaded\u00a0Lo que dice mi cantar<\/i>, the most recent album of the Tr\u00edo Palabras, integrated by the villagers from Liane P\u00e9rez, Nubia Gonz\u00e1lez and Vania Mart\u00ednez.<\/p>\n
Published under the American-Canadian label Mux\u00eda Music, the album collects 11 pieces as a tribute to the trova from different periods and regions of the country. Since El vendedor de agua<\/i> Lorenzo Hierrezuelo, who opens the album like a proclamation, going through Esta vez toc\u00f3 perder<\/i>, from Mar\u00eda Teresa Vera -juro que \u201cesta vez\u201d no extra\u00f1\u00e9 para nada Veinte a\u00f1os<\/i>-, even that spirit anthem that is Pensamiento<\/i>, of T\u00a1ofilito, or so tender, for insomniac, El soldado<\/i>by Rafael Su\u00e1rez.<\/p>\n
With such a repertoire, it seems that we are facing the last of the products conceived \"for the Yumas\", with \u00ednflulas and all of the great market. But stop<\/i>. The music takes care very quickly to break the curse that the hundreds of traditional trova discs (or will they be thousands?) Have released, published here or there, under the label of world music (or related). Because one thing is to compile in a two by three themes reapproved<\/i>, for immense type L\u00e1grimas negras<\/i>, and another very different one to take the job of digging carefully in the immense catalog of the trova to revere and return to shine (with the goodness of a polisher), to other songs also enormously beautiful. For that, the key is the interpretation of the Words Trio, the precise sound of Nubia's guitar, the filling of the unique voices of Vania and Liane (so subtle and respectful of silence: as if each phrasing took a deep breath before) and , of course, the orchestrations and arrangements designed for the album.<\/p>\n
The list of musicians and music that accompany Palabras here is another sign of the collective spirit and the fraternity that prevails in the Santa Cruz de la Trova of recent years. Are they Trovarroco<\/i> Maikel Elizarde (three) and Rachid L\u00f3pez (guitar), the double bass of Meyl\u00edn Chaviano, the la\u00fad of Teresa Wong and the percussion of Axel Yera and Alexis \"Pututi\" Arce (prominent name in the Cuban timba of the nineties).<\/p>\n
