year in the Festival de la Farola, in the Anniversary of Baracoa and in other State occasions such as the Water Festival, Caribbean Festival, and Guantanamero.  Both of them sing at various worker’s solidarity parties and one of their favourite gigs is to serenade the expectant Mothers in the Maternity Home.

Antonio (Tony) Delfino Machado - Director, lead guitar and singer.
Tony has been a part of Duo Voces de Miel since its inception in 2004.  The duo specializes in traditional Cuban music such as boleros, son, plus Mexican ranchero and musica norteña.

From a young boy, Tony was interested in becoming a musician.  Living in the country where radio was the lifeline to the outside world, he would listen to the radio and imitate the trios and duos of the day.  Practise makes perfect and he continued until he could sing these groups’ repertoires perfectly.  Finally, in secondary school he was able to buy his first guitar.  He persevered with his musical studies until attaining the level of professional musician.  Tony is the founder and the tour de force of Duo Voces del Miel.

Melecio Cala Silot - Second Guitar and voice
Melecio is a professional musician with eight years of experience.  From a young boy he listened to guitar music and sang in young people’s festivals.  At the age of 14 he began to learn to read music and began to perform with his cousin in the group Sexteto Tropical.  After a stint with that group he joined with Tony to be his partner in Duo Voces de Miel.
