Alfredo de la Fe to Headline Troveros de Asieta Festival

The 26th Troveros de Asieta Christmas Festival is excited to announce a major star in Latin music this year: Cuban violinist Alfredo de la Fe. Throughout his long career, de la Fe has performed with music legends such as Tito Puente, Celia Cruz, Eddie Palmieri, Cheo Feliciano, Héctor Lavoe, Santana, Rubén Blades, and Willie Colón. He will join the festival for both scheduled events: on December 26th at 8:00 PM at the Leal Theater in La Laguna, Tenerife, and on December 27th at 8:00 PM in the Plaza de Santo Domingo in Santa Cruz de La Palma.

Troveros de Asieta first performed in La Palma's capital on December 29, 1991, and has since held an annual Christmas concert. In 2000, these Christmas shows grew into a festival, featuring guest artists and expanding their reach from La Palma to Tenerife.
