Annotation — Latin & Central American, & Caribbean Music
Born 23 December 1936, Santiago de Cuba, Santiago de Cuba, Cuba Died 29 February 1992, New York, NY, United States Bolero, Cuban Music “No Matarás” reflects the public turn in opinion towards the war and the times. Her passion is showcased in this tune, especially when she sings of the pain of mothers whose sons are killed in wars, while a quiet electric guitar gently wails in the background. (1)
