Under the artistic direction of Yadiel Durán, the show will last an hour and will include a selection of themes from romantic music linked to the Cuban revolutionary process.
The event constitutes a mixture of art, where the Compañía Danza Espiral, singers and declaimers, will also worship the trova in Cuba, the source added.

July 26 is known in Cuba as the National Rebellion Day, for the aforementioned military actions carried out by young people led by Fidel Castro, who would go down in history as the Centennial Generation.
The attacks on these fortresses were aimed at unleashing the armed struggle against the dictatorship of Fulgencio Batista (1952-1958), and despite the military defeat, they served as a driving force for actions that culminated in the triumph of the Revolution on January 1, 1959.
