MIAMI, FL, UNITED STATES, July 15, 2021 /EINPresswire.com/ — As a sign of solidarity with the people of Cuba, starting tonight through Sunday night, downtown Miami’s 700-foot-tall Paramount Miami Worldcenter skyscraper will light-up the city’s skyline with the largest L.E.D. mosaic display of flags from around the globe and the musical message, “One World, One Prayer,” from Cuban-American musician Emilio Estefan.
Emilio Estefan’s Global Unity Anthem
“One World, One Prayer” is the title of the recently-released global unity anthem written and produced by Cuban immigrant and 19-time Grammy Award winner Emilio Estefan of Miami. It is performed by the world-famous Bob Marley and The Wailers reggae band.
Local radio stations are being asked to play the song every evening.
Global Mosaic Message of Hope
“The Paramount Miami tower is sending a signal to the world that Miami stands in solidarity with the people of Cuba in the quest for independence from an oppressive regime,” says Paramount Miami Worldcenter CEO-Developer Daniel Kodsi (Cod-See).
Emilio Estefan
In 1967, at the age of 14, Estefan and his father, Emilio Sr., fled Cuba for Spain and then settled in Miami. Emilio Estefan founded the 1980’s Latino pop-music band, “The Miami Sound Machine.” He married the band’s star-singer, 7-time Grammy Award Winner Gloria Estefan, also a Cuban immigrant.
He says, “’One World, One Prayer’ is an anthem and a musical prayer for global peace, harmony and love and we are sending a shining signal from Miami to the people of Cuba that we support their quest for liberty.”
Tower Lighting Times
At the top of every hour; for two minutes; beginning at 5:00 a.m. until sunrise; and from sunset to midnight; the world’s tallest electronic animation lighting system will display moving images of flags representing 132 countries and an enormous ticker-tape-style L.E.D. read-out of the song’s title: “One World, One Prayer.”
Lighting System Facts
Paramount, which is downtown Miami’s soaring signature skyscraper, will illuminate its 60-story-tall center column and its 150-foot-high by 300-foot-wide rooftop crown with a moving-medley of fluttering flags from five continents. Across the building's 100-yard-long crown and through its middle are the scrolling lyrics, “One World, One Prayer.”
The tower lightings will continue through the night of Sunday, July 18, 2021.
The $600-million Paramount Miami Worldcenter is built with a state-of-the-art, $3-million Color Kinetics animation lighting system consisting of 14,300 light emitting diodes embedded in 10,000 panes of high-impact glass. The system can create 16.2 million color-combinations. It took three years to design and install Paramount’s lighting system.
