    Once again, death has dealt a hard blow to Cuban and global music heritage. We learned the painful news that on Sunday, the creator of a unique style of 'tumbao' and emblematic star of Cuban music, César 'Pupy' Pedroso, has died in La Habana.

    He became famous with Orquesta Revé and then was one of the founding members of the great and enduring Los Van Van. Also Pupy y los que Son Son, which he founded in 2001 and directed until his death.

    He stood out for his very distinctive style at the 'sonero' piano, as well as for his mastery in great Cuban music orchestras such as Los Van Van and Pupy los que Son Son, which he founded in 2001 and directed until his death. He was a key member of the Cuban musical train, as it is called. El tren de Cuba.

    As a composer, he has more than 150 works, some of them recorded in the voices of great artists such as Celia Cruz, Adalberto Santiago, and Alfredo de la Fe, among others.

    See you later Pupy and thanks for the music that has illuminated many good times. You will be travelling light, carrying only your sincerity, simplicity and your greatness as a musician and as a human being. Good trip my friend.
