Qué más hacer en esta tierra incendiada sino cantar is a collaborative album by Juan Carlos Baglietto and Lito Vitale, released in 2001. The title comes from a verse by Cuban poet José Martí, reflecting the spirit of resistance and denunciation of the album. Recorded in Buenos Aires and produced by Vitale, the album emerges in a context of economic and social crisis in Argentina, which deeply influences its content.
The album's sound combines the intimacy of piano and voice with string and wind arrangements, creating an atmosphere that is both lyrical and combative. Notable songs include 'Qué más hacer', 'Canción para un soldado', and 'La patria no se vende', addressing themes of injustice, memory, and hope. The collaboration with Vitale reaches its most mature and committed point here.
The album was acclaimed by critics as a necessary work in times of crisis, and became an emblem of Argentine protest song at the beginning of the 21st century. Its legacy is that of an album that captured social discontent without losing poetic beauty. It remains a reference for those seeking music with social consciousness.
