Horizons: Live At Festival Paax Gnp [CD], Alondra De La Parra, CD

Fuga Latina is a new collection from Outhere Music dedicated to honouring the voice of Latin America in all it's richness and complexity; it's composers, musicians and creators, it's diverse traditions, and the creative dialogues it has with the world, far beyond the reach of cliches.This inaugural album, recorded live at the 2023 Festival PAAX GNP in Mexico's Mayan Riviera, brings together three landmark concertos under the baton of conductor Alondra de la Parra, Artistic Director and Founder of the festival. Works by Paquito D'Rivera, Omar Massa, Yamandu Costa, and Sergio Assad trace a vibrant sonic journey from the Caribbean to Buenos Aires and Brazil, where African, Chinese, and Latin American traditions meet the symphonic stage.The composers perform as soloists alongside The Impossible Orchestra; the spontaneity and shared energy of the live performance imbue these works with a raw, unrepeatable intensity.
