Global harmony is our mission. World peace is our vision. Our community's weekly live music celebration reaches musicians and listeners globally on a virtual stage, upholding the classic pattern of an open mic event. At the end of each week, we enjoy a community concert, highlighting a Spotlight Artist. Every contributor can be proud of the fact we are co-creating a more harmonious world by sharing the joys of music.
For Hive Open Mic 296, we will explore the following theme: "I Will Return". Everyone is encouraged to express and connect through this theme. This is a pressure-free invitation to express and connect, encouraging us to explore new territory together as artists. Musicians always have full freedom to bring whatever music feels inspired in the moment.

Acknowledgments
The greatest gift we can give to an artist is our encouragement. For this reason, we humbly ask that everyone offer some friendly words. Let's reward musicians by offering applause as if we're in a pub, a coffee shop, or concert hall. Here, musicians and listeners gain connection across the world, through people of various cultures and languages. This is the harmonizing power of music. Behind the scenes, Hive Open Mic moderators devote extraordinary energy each week to listening, commenting, curating, and creating for this community. The moderation task is a big undertaking, led this week by @cabelindsay, @mipiano, @jesuslnrs and @fernanblog.
Hello Hive Open Mic family! Week 296 theme: "I Will Return." This time, I wanted to perform a merengue to change things up a bit.

Seeing this week's theme, "I will return," several well-known songs that touch on this subject came to mind, and while I was deciding which one to record, my son @luisfe came in singing "Hoy sonrisa mi corazón..." (Today my heart smiles...). When he got to the "I will return..." part, I decided to record "Hoy" (Today) because it's not very well-known, because it deserves to be remembered, and because the connotation of his "I will return" is very different from the other songs.

Hello community, greetings to all. How good it is to have the opportunity to sing a song which I have listened to for many years and it really motivates me to sing it since that song "Volver, Volver" coincides with this week's theme which is I will return.
