Harold Ricardo, director of the group, told ACN that it will begin its performance as part of the giant orchestra of participants, which will offer the event’s inaugural concert.
 

He specified that three presentations will be made after this performance in regions of that Central American nation before taking part in the closing ceremony with the band of musicians attending the event.
 

Ricardo commented that a repertoire that includes classic and contemporary authors, like Cubans Ernesto Lecuona and Guido Lopez Gavilan has been prepared for the Festival.
 

Pizzicato, founded five years ago and composed of talented musicians who’re also members of the Holguin Symphony Orchestra, offers regular concerts at the provincial office of the Association of Cuban Writers and Artists and at La Periquera Provincial Museum.
 

During its brief career, the string quartet has accompanied maestro Frank Fernández, winner of the National Music Prize, in concerts and recordings.
