Pablo Milanés
Pablo Milanés was a Cuban singer and guitarist and one of the founding figures of the Cuban nueva trova movement.
Orígenes
Active from the mid-1960s until 2022, he helped found nueva trova alongside Silvio Rodríguez and Noel Nicola, drawing on the Trova, Son and other traditional Cuban styles of the early 20th century.
El sonido
His music grew out of the Trova and Son traditions, a rootsy, melodic approach that set him apart from the style of his contemporary Silvio Rodríguez.
Legado
As a pillar of nueva trova, he became one of the most influential voices in modern Cuban song.
Canción insignia
Yolanda
"Yolanda" is his signature song, a tender ballad that remains one of the best-loved pieces of the nueva trova repertoire.
