The day of this Saturday, La Casa de la Cueca confirmed the death of Don Pepe Fuentes, one of the most prominent national folklorists.
“Friends, with great sorrow, but at the same time calm and resigned, we inform you José Pepe Fuentes has just left?they said on social media.
?? We appreciate the samples of support to María Esther, Óscar and those who make up the Casa de la Cueca. Goodbye Pepe Fuentes, Grand Master ??, they added regarding the musician who leaves us at 89 years old.
After the confirmation of his death, the figures of music and the show crowded in social networks to fire the cuequero.
?? Goodbye Pepe Fuentes, friend and mentor of life, with whom we share in so many scenarios. With him goes a fundamental part of Chilean music ??, Los Tres commented, sharing a photo from 1996 on the first ?? Yein Fonda ??.
Denise Malebran, for her part, assured that the folklorist’s departure is ?? the last thing he took away from us in 2020 ??.
?? My condolences to his majestic artistic family and a hug full of admiration and affection to María E. Zamora. They are and will continue to be a heritage of our culture??, assured the national singer.
From the Ministry of Culture, Art and Heritage, they sadly dismissed this man who was one of the leaders of cueca and traditional music.
?? A man who traveled between singing, guitar and tambourine. Author, composer and director, who today leaves a generous musical mark on new generations?said Minister Consuelo Valdés on Twitter.
Thus, more artists and people linked to the entertainment world were added, such as Eduardo Fuentes, who asserted that with the departure of Pepe Fuentes “the cueca cries.”
