"Liuba Maria Hevia.This is an artist you will love forever...Despite being one of the most famous and revered singers and composers in Cuba, Liuba Maria Hevia is not a well known name outside her country or Latin American circles of fans of the Nueva Trova genre. That is because of a chronic underpromotion by her label and not because of poor quality, as you will find in amazement listening to this CD, the first album of her career.In Coloreando la esperanza you will discover a warm, sweet and delicate voice singing highly poetic lyrics surrounded by the musical atmosphere created by her group. It's a fully acoustic group of classical (violin, cello) as well as traditional Cuban instruments (tres, laud, guitar) performing elaborated arrangements composed by Liuba herself and her musicians, graduated in the high-quality ENA and ISA art institutes.It is the Nueva Trova (Cuba's author song) at its full height. Enjoy."
