Humberto Vargas to play in Viña del Mar International Song Festival’s Finale
Back in the year 2006, the Costa Rican composer Humberto Vargas made Costa Rica scream with joy, when, as an international participant in Viña del Mar International Song Festival, he won the maximum price “Gaviota de Plata” (silver seagull) for best song with his brilliant composition “Dilo de una vez” (say it once and for all).
This year, the festival is celebrating its 50th anniversary and for that reason, they have invited the past years Festival winners to come back and participate with their winning songs. So Humberto Vargas is back in Viña with his song “Dilo de una vez”. Humberto is sharing the stage and competing against participants from Spain, Italy, Argentina, Chile and Peru.
Yesterday night he performed in front of the judges for the second time this week and proudly passed to the next and final round that will take place tonight. Will he repeat his triumphant performance of 2006? We have our fingers cross for you Humberto!!!
Humberto is a Costa Rican artist who has shown us the high quality artistic material that is created and produced in our country. Hopefully, artists like Humberto will open the eyes of Costa Rican sponsors that think that soccer teams is the only group that they can advertise and sponsor, I mean, come on! When has Costa Rican soccer teams produced such great results like the ones Humberto has achieved with his hard work?
