LOS
KOYAS
Songs
and music from South America
|
[...]
"LOS KOYAS is a group of excellent musicians who
perform all of the songs of the South American continent.
The panorama is particularly colourful and diverse, performed
to perfection.
What a great moment of music that concert was! I will happily
go to hear the LOS KOYAS group again in Monaco!"
NICE MATIN
[...] "There are only five of them from four different
countries in South America, but they play fifteen instruments.
To the rhythm of multiple combinations, they achieve the impossible
of representing all of Latin American and in a concert of
two hours are able to show the thousand facets of folklore
and music in this continent with a hundred faces."
LE DAUPHINE LIBERE
[...] "Rarely have I felt to this degree,
through the entire evening without the tension going down
for a second, what it means to say the word celebration.
No doubt the cheerful presence of the group, where nothing
is affected or pretentious. Colourful ponchos on a white shirt
and black pants.
A program with great variety.
But above all, a life and rhythms that brought the house down
with applause and clapping."

All
of Latin America in
music and song
And also:
The five musicians and solo singers of the LOS KOYAS group perform
on stage the most beautiful melodies of 12 Latin American countries,
from the Andes to Cuba.
New
CD !
"El condor pasa", "La bamba", "Guantanamera",
"Che Guevara" and
many other tunes known round the world bear witness
of the public’s incredible craze for music from Latin
America and for Latin rhythms.
But
the numerous international hits of Latin American music
are little when compared with the extraordinary diversity
of Latin America with its lively and festive music or
its traditional popular music.
Among
the artists who have contributed to the spread of this
music and made its influence felt, the LOS KOYAS group
stands out. Created in 1970, it won the same year, with
‘El condor pasa’ on the Barclay label, its first great
success in a long series, establishing its high-quality
performance of a repertoire drawn from the very sources
of 12 Latin American countries.
Composed
of five musicians and solo singers, the LOS KOYAS group
offers an incredibly rich show on stage with an entirely
new twist: a unique repertoire of the most beautiful
and previously unknown themes from South American folklore
and Latin American music.
Indian flutes,
music from the Andes, Cuban and Venezuelan rhythms,
mariachi and la pampa songs, Colombian "cumbias",
Indian harp solos and Indian guitars… With LOS KOYAS,
we discover the thousand and one treasures of this music
from around the world, from the Andes to the origins
of Salsa.
