Beatriz Márquez
It’s seldom that the criteria of the music reviews and the audience match up. If it happens, it must be an exceptional musician. Beatriz Márquez, definitely is. Born on 17th February 1952 she made her debut in 1968 on a TV show, singing "Espontáneamente”, a song composed by René Márquez, her father.
During the fist years of her career her work was accepted so well by the Cubans, that she was elected to participate in the “Festival de Varadero” in 1970. She had then already recorded her first CD, one of the most important ones of her career, called “Es soledad”.
After participating in international events receiving wide recognition, she constantly continued growing as artist, with musical intelligence, respect for the audience, together with a virtuous pianist, an impeccable diction and an angel like tuning.
She has realized duets with famous names, such as Dyango, Moncho “El gitano del bolero”, and she has also been elected by Armando Manzanero, who confessed that Beatriz is his favorite Cuban singer.
Her fans appreciate her for her high quality of interpretation and a simplicity that can be accessed by all types of audiences. Her voice has joined the always awaited “Festival del bolero” and the competitions “Adolfo Guzmán”, where she was awarded more than once.
She has left us songs that are part of our lives, such as "Raíces Profundas", "Es soledad", "Espontáneamente" and more. Recently she has recorded an excellent anthology CD with songs that have marked her artistic life, which he has brought to stage in the Astral Theater.
A singer admired by everybody who won the sincere applause of the Cubans who keep relating to her as “La Musicalísima de Cuba".
