Cuban pianist and composer Frank Fernandez announced today that he will dedicate a concert to the Cuban Revolution on the 60th anniversary of Fidel Castro's entry into Havana, with the Caravana de la Victoria.

On Tuesday, January 8, the musician plans to offer the recital at 9:00 pm local time at the Morro Cabaña Complex, with free admission for the entire public, he told Prensa Latina.

Fernandez said the presentation will also be dedicated to the 500th anniversary of the founding of Villa San Cristóbal de La Habana and constitutes the preamble of the activities for the celebration of his 60 years of artistic life.

During the evening, he will perform works by the Austrian composer Franz Schubert, the Polish Fryderyk Chopin, the Cuban Ernesto Lecuona, as well as pieces of his own authorship.

The hands of this versatile musician will once again perform the play called Oda a la Patria, a piece inspired by Fidel and premiered on January 1, 1999, at the celebration of the 40th anniversary of the triumph of the Cuban Revolution.

Listed as one of the world's greatest pianists, he has been praised by critics from several continents for his masterful interpretations.

Graduated with a gold degree at the Tchaikovsky Conservatory in Moscow, he holds the Pushkin Medal, awarded directly by Russian President Vladimir Putin, the only Cuban with such distinction.

It holds more than 200 awards in its curriculum and exceeds 650 compositions in different formats such as ballets, choirs, film soundtracks, radio, television and arrangements for popular music groups.

Inside and outside Cuba, several pieces of his repertoire became popular, such as the composition for the telenovela Tierra Brava, the series La Gran Rebelión, as well as the Suite for two pianos, played by himself, one of them live in contrast with the other, previously recorded.
