Singing career

Blanca Rosa Gil's first album 'Shadows' was recorded in Venezuela in 1957. In the 1950s, 1960's and 1970's, Gil recorded albums on various different labels: Velvet, Benson, Echo, Discuba, Maype, and Modiner. She is best known for her hit song 'Te Odio Y Te Quiero' (Mi Triumfo). A number of her many classic Bolero recordings on long play record albums have been rereleased on Compact disc.

Later life

Gil left Cuba for Caracas, Venezuela with her family in 1955. She returned to Cuba as a singer in 1962, but was subsequently exiled to Miami, Florida, where she lived for nine years. She married and has resided in 'La Isla Borinquen', Puerto Rico, for the past 40 years. Gil has concentrated on Christian religious singing in recent years, and still sings in Evangelical churches.[1][2] Gil's Bolero music has experienced a revival in recent years due to reissuance of her record albums on Compact disc and MP3, and she occasionally returns to the stage to perform her Cuban Bolero classic songs.[3] In 2013, Gil appeared live in concert at Miami-Dade Auditorium in Miami, Florida.[4]
