Viaje al Centro de la Tierra

For the recording of this album, Diego Gutiérrez turned to guitarist Emilio Martiní for the second time for arrangements and shared record production. It was recorded at PM Records Studios in Havana, and featured important Cuban and foreign instrumentalists. The songs that compose it are poems by renowned Cuban writers, turned into songs over the years, in friendship shared in the time when Gutiérrez lived in Santa Clara, a province in central Cuba. Hence the title of the album, which is also a tribute to the work of Jules Verne. This album was officially presented in Cuba in concert at Casa de las Américas in January 2022. == Track listing ==
