Some of his poetry was set to music by the Latin jazz ensemble Intakto on their albums ''Intakto'' (2002) and ''Todavia'' (2007); ''Intakto'' won the Félix Award for World Music Album of the Year at the 25th Felix Awards in 2003, and was a Juno Award nominee for World Music Album of the Year at the ...

''The'' is a grammatical article in English, denoting nouns that are already or about to be mentioned, under discussion, implied or otherwise presumed familiar to listeners, readers, or speakers. It is the definite article in English. ''The'' is the most frequently used word in the English language; studies and analyses of texts have found it to account for seven percent of all printed English-language words.
