On June 27, 2015, Pasache Music brings you an evening of traditional Peruvian musica criolla with breakout artist Felipe Alberto at Lolita’s Lounge in the City of Calgary.
After performance in Lima Peru, Felipe Alberto returns to Calgary. Come to enjoy the rich sounds of South American guitar, the african rooted rhythms of the Peruvian cajon, and a style of singing from a bygone era.
Saturday, May 30, 2015 I was honoured to perform as a special guest on Una y Mil Voces hosted by Bartola on Perú’s national television station, TV Perú. It was wonderful to share the stage again with friends such as Jorge Pardo, Jorge Luis Jasso, Alejandro Velasquez, Julie Freundt, and Julio Andrade. That particular two hour edition of Una y Mil Voces was to honour famed Peruvian composer, Félix Pasache. As such I sang one of his most famous songs, Nuesto Secreto translated into French.
Thank you to the lovely people of Standout Publications for the wonderful interview and article on Alma del Ayer in their Summer 2015 issue.
Enjoy the article!

This coming Saturday, April 18, at Bambu Restaurant and Night Club, Port Chester, New York, I will be participating in Homenaje a Pasache – an event by Pasache Music.  It will be a night dedicated to criollo music with many of your favourite artists. I hope to see you all there.
From the bottom of my heart I thank the La Guarida Musical, from Madrid, Spain, for the interviews. Â It is clear that this blog is driven entirely out of love for music.
Today I present you with the video of La Apañadora, a beautiful tondero by Peruvian composer – Alicia Maguiña. I hope you enjoy it. This project is my labour of love and admiration for the cultural legacy of Peru’s traditional music. I hope that this project helps to foment a great appreciation for this musical genre. You can also listen this cover of La Apanadora on my Muzooka profile.
