Über Yordano

Yordano is one of Venezuela's most cherished singer-songwriters, an Italian-born, Caracas-raised artist who gave the country's pop a literate, heartfelt voice from the 1980s. His warm melodies and evocative lyrics produced enduring standards like Manantial de Corazón and Perla Negra, and his song Por Estas Calles became the theme of a landmark telenovela and a symbol of a changing Venezuela. A 2015 battle with leukemia drew an outpouring of national affection that confirmed his beloved status.
