One of the issues inherited from the previous century that is still on the agenda of international academic debate today is that of identity. Today we are faced with the urgent need for new analytical tools that allow us to approach the reality that has been taking shape. Thus, researchers from different branches of the social sciences face the challenge of explaining the social dimension of musical changes. I am thinking of all this with regard to the many mutations that have been taking place in the work of Cuban jazz musicians who were born and educated in the eastern region of Cuba and who break with stereotypes that have prevailed among us for a long time. In this sense, a good example to corroborate my assertion is the case of the young Guantanamo-born Ángel Toirac, trained as a percussionist but who, like other Cuban instrumentalists beyond the speciality in which he was educated, has opted for the piano to further his artistic career.

As part of the programme of the recent Jazz Plaza festival, a concert was held on 28 January at the Sala Tito Junco of the Bertolt Brecht Cultural Centre to present the album Tierra entre ríos, Ángel Toirac's debut album. Containing nine tracks, the phonogram breaks with the idea that our compatriots only make Latin jazz, or Afro-Cuban jazz, as others prefer to say. This is an album which, without renouncing the Cuban, moves within the codes of contemporary jazz and where the beauty of the melodic lines of each cut and the good work of the accompanying musicians, mostly young people, stand out. This is a legitimate sound that transcends the frontiers of what conventional views would expect from a jazzman from the backyard, and especially from an instrumentalist from the east of the country. It so happens that Ángel Toirac is committed to a mixture of styles and genres, as part of the process of hybridisation that a whole area of our music is undergoing today. Produced in a collaboration between this pianist and the Casabaneque Local Development Project -an undertaking directed by Selma Levav Mediavilla-, in addition to the many musical merits of the material, the physical format of the CD is a tribute to the poetic and pictorial work of the Guantanamero Regino E. Boti, which gives the recording an added value. So, for lovers of jazz made by our compatriots, I recommend that they engrave the name of Ángel Toirac in their memories, as he will surely give much to talk about in the future.

Discos que se mueven entre la Canción Cubana Contemporánea y el buen jazz de nuestro tiempo.

Que gratificante es saber , leer y ver que hay una crítica frontal desde una emisora radial a las instituciones cubanas de la cultura. Serán los primeros visos de democracia y Libertad de expresión.
Y dice así Reloj:

« Ojalá el Instituto de la Música, el Ministerio de Cultura y otras instituciones afines unan voluntades, conjuntamente con las direcciones provinciales y municipales de Cultura, para que este espectáculo pueda presentarse en las principales ciudades del país. Cuba no es La Habana, y el resto de la nación también necesita tener acceso, de primera mano, al buen arte ».

La sala Avellaneda del Teatro Nacional de Cuba volvió a convertirse en un templo de las bellas artes este fin de semana. Voces líricas de La Habana y Holguín se encontraron en ese escenario, acompañados por la Orquesta Sinfónica y el Coro de la Radio y la Televisión Cubanas, dirigidos por Migu...
