Synopsis Bandolero

De raíz is a song to the earth that beats in the heart of percussion. A journey through the deepest roots of music, where rhythm becomes the universal language that speaks directly to the soul.

In this show, percussion unfolds like a tapestry of sounds woven with threads of flamenco and African, Cuban, or South American music. Each beat, each palma, each vibration, evokes the essence of the earth and the unity of humanity.

It is a sensory experience in which percussion becomes a bridge between cultures, times, and emotions.

From the visceral nature of flamenco to the tribal rhythms of Africa, from the cadence of Cuban music to the richness of South America. Each sound transports us to a different corner of the world, showing us how percussion is a language that unites stories and traditions.

Synopsis El fuego que llevo dentro

El fuego que llevo dentro (The fire I carry inside) is the title of the debut album of singer Lela Soto, alluding to the ancestral heritage of a lineage that she carries within and that she premieres on stage imbued with her very personal musical imprint.

Using her voice, the touch of the guitar, and the rhythm of the palmas, Lela Soto narrates her own story, emphasizing the experiential and what continues to move the world: love. And she does it from its dark side, from the shadows that hide behind a relationship and that not even love itself can save, offering us an intimate work full of nuances of incalculable musical value.
