This new album introduces the most favorite
Christmas songs from around the world in
a Latin American (and particularly Peruvian)
musical perspective and features the region's
traditional instruments and styles. Afroandina
Christmas has no precedent in the recording
industry. Its unique sound, based on the
styles and instrumentation used, refreshes
the spirit of carols songs and allows the
listener to enjoy this music beyond the
Holiday Season.
|
Listen
to "Silent night", "Little
drummer boy", "The little Savana
donkey" (El burrito Sabanero) -among
others- as you never have before, performed
by charming Zampoña and Quena (pan
flutes of the Andes), acoustic Spanish guitar,
Charango, Andean percussion (tambor wankara,
bombo legüero), Afro-Peruvian percussion
(cajón, quijada de burro), violin,
accordion, bass and keyboards.
|
These
christmas carols showcase Andean styles
such as Wayno, Sikuri (music for dialoguing
panpipes) and the Saya, an Afro-influenced
dance; from the coast of Peru we are introduced
to Festejo, Zamacueca, Panalivio and the
Creole Waltz. Other styles represented on
the CD find their origins in South American
Folklore such as the Argentinean Zamba and
Chacarera, Joropo from Venezuela and some
Tropical rhythms. These traditional styles
are further enhanced by New Age and Pop
music influences and at times contrast with
Baroque and Renaissance musical interpretations.
The fusion of such diverse elements is accomplished
through the vision and talent of two renowned
Peruvian musicans: José Luis Madueño
and Ricardo Silva.
|
The joint of these elements has flourished
because of the vision of two peruvian
musicians and producers: José Luis
Madueño and Ricardo Silva.
|
José
Luis Madueño, pianist and composer,
was twice runner-up (2000 and 2002) for
best composer at the "Festival de Jazz
de La Habana" in Cuba. This prize,
the "Ibero-American Prize of Latin
Jazz", is presented by Sociedad General
de Autores y Editores (SGAE), the Spanish
equivalent of BMI and ASCAP in the United
States. José Luis has accomplished
the best fusion of Afro-Peruvian music and
Jazz on his album Chilcano and he has taken
the music of the Andes towards new forms
of expression on his albums Wayruro and
Flight of the Condor. A sensitive and versatile
acoustic and electric pianist, and an avid
student of world music and its roots, he
is able to mix diverse styles with surprising
results. José Luis is a source of
inspiration for present and future generations
of musicians in Lima, Peru where he spends
part of his time teaching music.
|
Ricardo
Silva, on the other hand, is a folklorist
with Afro and Andean roots. Proudly "Mestizo"
(of mixed race), he has dedicated his career
to Andean Music, both indigenous and contemporary,
and has performed and recorded with various
highly regarded artists and producers form
around the world. He is the founder of the
group "Del Pueblo y Del Barrio"
("From the People and the Neighborhod)
a group renowned in their home country for
pioneering what is now commonly referred
to as Latin Rock. When not in the studio
or performing, Ricardo may be found teaching
the dance of Musica Negra (Afro-Peruvian)
and traditional instruments to young inca
artists.
|
The
musicians collaborating on this recording
with Madueño and Silva are among
the finest in Peru. For Christmas 2003,
Afroandina Chrstmas was released in Peru
with a video clip for T.V. featuring the
ever-popular "Feliz Navidad".
The video has been filmed in Matute, Cerro
San Cristobal and the Pantanos de Villa
(Peru) and it includes the participation
of Peru's best-known folcloric dance group
"Así es mi Perú".
