 GIANMARIA TESTA (ITALY)
(text
only in Spanish)
Gianmaria is a
popular Italian
cantautor and
refining
simultaneously; a
cantautor with the
hoarse and velvety
voice. Their letters
seem small poetries
that speak of fog
and encounter, of
solitudes and hills;
musics that evoke
the tango, bossanova,
the Havanan… Its
last bet: to impose
its songs without
adjustments,
florituras, only
with the force of
its intensity.

Kingdom. Musics represent a global band with Turkish
influences, of the Ottoman kingdom, Oriente.medio and the North of
äfrica. |
 PIETRA MONTECORVINO (ITALIA)
This actress and Neapolitan
singer are all a revelation.
In its rough voice the best
thing of the tradition of
the Neapolitan song is
concentrated. Its style
updates those songs without
they are necessary
artificialidades nor
technologies. It does with a
so own style that one
escapes to any archetype. To
see it and to hear it in
direct are all a sensation. |
 WARSAW VILLAGE BAND

Great discovery in the musical panorama of the 2003 group leads a wind of change in the scene of folk
Polish. They combine the traditional techniques and the old songs so that polka acquires a blow of tecno and in spite of the instrumentalización that an electronic impact has. |
