LP Cecilia Vicuna - Ricardo Gallo La Niebla Vital, Wiraqochan

La niebla vital, Wiraqochan.

This first recording of Cecilia Vicuña with Ricardo Gallo was done in 2017 and features the performance of selected poems from Cecilia’s book “La Wik’uña”, published in 1990. The poems chosen for this recording deal with the wealth of knowledge from ancient Andean cultures relating it to the environmental crisis today.

Cecilia’s unique voice, charged with echoes of indigenous chants and contemporary wit, dialogues with Ricardo’s distinct piano touch sometimes sounding like another instrument. This intimate duo continues to be a fruitful vehicle for a sonic-poetic expression that is as potent as it is ephemeral.
