Culo e Puya
Fulía
‍This fulía, bounced from an old recording kindly lent to us by the ‘Morella Muñoz Foundation’, in Caracas, we bring back and celebrate the voice of this unforgettable diva of Venezuelan song

Sirena | Tientos
The compelling mood of the sirena song inspires the measured and sensual quality of the tientos

This track represents the direct combination of a beautiful Venezuelan song with another, equally expressive, from the flamenco chapter known as ‘Songs of Departure and Return'

A tribute to a great popular tradition, embodied in the music of warmly loved Venezuelan icons such as Maestros Antonio Lauro and Raúl Borges among others

A light-hearted battle of expression
