Hasta siempre, comandante

Last night's concert was given by the Quinteto Criollo, a group from Santa Clara in Cuba, on a European tour sponsored by the Cuban Ministry of Culture. They played all the tunes you might expect a Cuban group to play, as popularised by the Buena Vista Social Club -- including, of course, Hasta siempre, comandante.

The music was pleasant enough, but I didn't find them that visually interesting. This is the oud player looking soulful while playing the above song.

Aquí se queda la clara,
la entrañable transparencia,
de tu querida presencia,
Comandante Che Guevara.
