A 55 años de su muerte, Bola de Nieve sigue sentado al piano del Monseigneur
Fifty-five years after his death, Ignacio Villa, the performer Cuba knew as Bola de Nieve, still holds his seat at the piano in the Monseigneur restaurant in Havana's Vedado district. The eatery keeps his memory alive the way some corners of the city seem to refuse to let time pass. Cubans remember him as a big, tender presence whose voice, half a century after it went quiet, still seems to echo through the room.
Hay lugares en la Habana donde el tiempo se niega a pasar y hay voces que aunque se apagaron hace medio siglo, siguen resonando en cada rincón. Así se vive en el restaurante Monseigneur del Vedado, donde la memoria de Ignacio Villa, ese hombre grande y tierno al que todos llamaban Bola de Nieve, sigue sentada al piano.
