Avant-Folk = Digisleeve = (CD)
MACARI-SOTELO ENSAMBLE ELECTROACUSTICO makes a peculiar string ensemble, creating a delightful soundscape full of texture and subtleties that express different world musical languages and the sounds of nature. Eblen MACARI is an experienced and renowned Mexican-Lebanese composer and musician, who has explored a wide array of sounds, combining the eight-string classical guitar with state-of-the-art technology, developing a unique style. On the other hand, fellow musician Mauricio SOTELO is a self-taught guitarist and the founder in 1995 of CABEZAS DE CERA, a Progressive rock band that experiments with a number of musical styles from classical to experimental, finding in rock the freedom to blend these styles. Both musicians converge in the mastery and command of their specialty: the chordophones, or string instruments. Jointly published by the Great Winds/Musea and Azafran Media labels, "Avant-Folk" (2011) explores new compositions and ensemble arrangements. While Eblen MACARI composes with six and eight-stringed guitars, Mauricio SOTELO takes command of the Chapman Stick, the twelve-stringed electroacoustic guitar, the charrofono and the jaranita prisma. These last two metal instruments were invented by his brother Francisco SOTELO, who also is part of CABEZAS DE CERA. To be discovered !
