Message 2374:
TUESDAY 22 NOVEMBER (evening): MUSICA DE LA TIERRITA (CONCERT OF COLOMBIAN MUSIC FOR FLUTE AND GUITAR) at the CERVANTES INSTITUTE (tickets at the special price of £6, with advance booking and payment required by Monday 21 November) The Echoes Festival ( https://www.echoesfestival.co.uk ) has kindly offered my members a limited number of tickets at the special price of £6 for a concert to be held at the Cervantes Institute on Tuesday 22 November, starting at 7pm. About the Concert: We will discover some fresh and irresistible contributions to the flute-guitar repertoire from 'the land of a thousand rhythms'. Accompanied by flautist Emily Andrews, classical guitarist Francisco Correa presents music from his debut album, Música de la Tierrita ('music from the homeland'), exploring music for flute and guitar by composers from his native Colombia, including works written especially for him. These pieces mix classical and Colombian folk styles, drawing heavily on the rhythms and dances of central Colombia, such as the Bambuco, the Pasillo and the Joropo, but using more complex harmonies than traditionally used in folk music. The resulting music is worthy of world recognition on the concert stage while remaining undeniably Colombian. Detailed Programme: Luis Uribe Bueno Bandolita (Arr. R.
