El documental seleccionado nos acerca a la famosa Asociación de Mujeres Rumberas de Matanzas “Estanislá Luna y Yeya Calle”, única de su tipo en Cuba y creada el 13 de octubre de 2013.

La Feria Internacional Cubadiscotranscurrirá en varias sedes de la capital, y en formato híbrido, del 14 al 22 de mayo, luego de dos años sin celebrarse de esa manera debido a la pandemia de covid-19 según informó la presidenta del Instituto Cubano de la Música (ICM), Indira Fajardo.

En la edición 25, el principal reto, la misión y el deseo es hacerlo bien y que esté a la altura de lo que se merecen los músicos y artistas cubanos y todos los involucrados en el evento.

According to several digital media on the island, the Cubadisco award committee's call for entries was answered by more than 200 productions representing the work of the country's record companies and labels over the past two years, and the work of artists and specialists in different areas.

Among the jazz players, flute player Orlando Valle "Maraca", clarinetist Germán Velazco, and saxophonists César López and Alfred Thompson stand out with the phonogram "Los herederos", a tribute to maestro Chucho Valdés and the "all-star" Cuban music group Irakere.

Composed of ten songs and produced by EGREM, the album "Los herederos" promises to be an exquisite musical proposal, as it is a journey from the traditional to the most contemporary and electronic of Cuban music. Among the artists invited to be part of "Los herederos" are Mayquel González, Leonardo Milano, Jesús Andaluz, Yasek Manzano, Cimafunk, Alejandro Falcón, Alexander Abreu, Cucurucho Valdés, Harold López-Nussa, Yaroldy Abreu, Enrique Plá, Rodny Barreto, Alfred Thompson and Rolando Luna.

César López repeats his nomination with his group Habana Ensemble with the album of the same name, as well as trumpeter Roberto García and his Latin Waycon "De Norte a Sur", and young pianist Adrián Estévez with the album "Despertar".

Among the audiovisuals in competition are documentaries, live and studio concerts, with high quality materials and solid artistic proposals.

The 25th Cubadisco 2022 International Fair will be held in Havana from May 14 to 22, in a hybrid format, with the award ceremony as one of its most important moments, although the program includes the usual concerts and record presentations, as well as the symposium.
