Songlines Magazine

★★★★

Velasierra is a pioneering player of traditional Andean flutes who has reinvented his main instrument the 'Kena' as modern improvising vehicle, this has allowed him to develop a truly original musical language. With influences ranging from African music to jazz, his compositions are a rich mixture of largely unexplored Andean rhythms combined with contemporary melodies and harmonies. Aided by a talented group of musicians equally at ease reading complex arrangements as they are at exploring gutsy improvised music.


A fascinating mixture of Latin-American melodies, contemporary harmony and Afro-Andean rhythms, underlined by clear concepts of Jazz improvisation.
