Cuban troubadour Liuba María Hevia confessed today that after 30 years of a successful career, she still feels stagefright like the first day and thinks she is just beginning.

"The age of face and soul do not agree", the petite singer composer told Prensa Latina, famous for her children's songs and her defense of genders as the tango and country music.

That creative impulse feeds a megaconcert on occasion of the 30th anniversary of her career with the suggestive title of So Many Lives, she will dedicate next Saturday to several personalities who influenced her career.

In particular, she named composer Ada Elba Perez, who changed her life and Teresita Fernandez, who she remembers as a unique being, both spiritually alive in her memory.

With the assistance of her brother, dancer Pepe Hevia, this show has an aesthetic nearer to cinema than to the videoclip, with greater interaction with contemporary dance and images.

She assured she feels more comfortable with contemporary dance because it is nearer to her music and less static than classical style or even folklore dance.

So Many Lives absorbs her at present, the project deprives her of sleep and is even thinking about the music previous to the concert to accompany a poster exhibition linked to her work.

Her origin as part of the amateur artist movement, Liuba Maria learned that time goes by at a frightening speed and she will continue making music as long as she has something valid to say.

For the moment, a new album is already in the mixing that she owed the guitar for a long time, where she will talk with masters of strings like Pancho Amat (tres-guitarlike instrument with three pairs of strings and Barbarito Torres (laud-instrument of 18 strings).
