The Siboney Studios of Egrem, in this city, dedicated on Wednesday, the tribute album "Desde el alma" (From the soul) to the Comandante Juan Almeida Bosque on his 94th birthday.

Eight songs make up the album, six of them by the prolific composer, which, according to Marcos Campins, responsible for the recording notes, show the most intimate experiences of the man, husband, father and son.

The album also includes "A mi viejo", by his son Juan Guillermo (JG), and "Así te recordamos Comandante", in an instrumental version, composed by Ricardo Leyva.

After a rigorous selection by Juana de los Cuetos and Campins himself, who came up with the idea, "A Rosario", "A Bertha", "A Diana", "Este son homenaje", "Si se pudiera" and "María del Carmen" found in Tony Rodón, Dagoberto Planas, Inocencio Heredia and other musicians of the Son de Cuba Agency, the exact voices for their interpretation.

Produced by masters Ricardo Leyva and Fernando Dewar, the album takes care of the texts and speeds of each song, to maintain, as much as possible, the intentions and feelings that Almeida Bosque wanted to express when he wrote them.
