In this programme, the soprano Mariana Flores pays tribute to the women of Latin America, and depicts their loves, their sorrows, their joys in music with popular songs from Argentina, its wine-producing region of Cuyo and elsewhere. Accompanied by Quito Gato, who made the arrangements, on piano and guitar and Romain Lecuyer on double bass, this recital is an opportunity for listeners to discover some of the most beautiful popular songs of the twentieth century from the musicians’ homeland, including Dorotea la cautiva and Alfonsina y el mar from Ariel Ramírez’s collection Mujeres Argentinas, published in 1968.

REVIEWS:

What a joy to discover a great baroque soprano in this popular Argentinian music which has never stopped flirting with the baroque heritage! On the guitar, Quito Gato has concocted subtle accompaniments that weave a secret link between the baroque and popular worlds.

This disc is full of gems that it would be stupid not to pick up. Mariana Flores and her friend Quito Gato offer us a shot of vitamin D and pure emotion that feels good!
