In this space, Jandy participated alongside Jos\u00e9 Alberto El Canario, Adalgisa Pantale\u00f3n, Manny P\u00e9rez, Techy Fatule, Lumy Lizardo, and Ram\u00f3n Rodr\u00edguez Santos, addressing the theme of cultural identity, artistic purpose, and the responsibility that musical and cultural influence entails in society.\n\nDuring the meeting, the merengue artist also received a proclamation recognizing him as the leader of the El Legado del Caballo orchestra, reaffirming the continuity of a musical and cultural heritage that has transcended borders, generations, and industries, and that keeps the spirit of merengue alive as a symbol of national identity.\n\n\n<h6 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><strong>You can also read:<a href=\"https:\/\/deultimominuto.net\/entretenimiento\/la-casa-de-alofoke\/navidad-a-la-casa-de-alofoke-2\/\"> Jandy Ventura \u201cEl Legado\u201d in La Casa de Alofoke 2<\/a><\/strong><\/h6>\n\n\nYour participation has a special meaning, as it continues a legacy deeply linked to this stage.
