"Professor, pianist, & conductor, Mtro. César Cañon, is one of the most important personalities in the Music World to date. His outstanding career in music, is a proof of his dedication to his art. I have know him since many years ago when he performed the "Suite for Cello and Piano" by greatest late composer of Venezuela, Modesta Bor, (1926-2026), and I can say his pianism is at least...magical. The admiration and respect we fell around his musical figure, being from Colombia and now conquering the diverse scenarios of the world, makes us feel, we are in front of a serious, dedicated, and most sincere artist to perform, in front of his piano, or conducting opera, like a southamerican Giant in Music. His wisdom in front of a score to be interpreted by him, or in front of a Symphonic Orchestra, or choruses, not to mention, the singers soloists,converts the no-believers, that Mtro. César Cañon will go a short way in the straight path to the pantheon of greatest artists of the world in the Twenty First Century and beyond."
