Raíz was composed by the duo with a string arrangement by Latin Grammy award winning arranger Gustavo Jaramillo Pimentel. Bringing listeners on a journey of blended cultural sonority, Raíz is intimate and emotive.
With powerful vocals, sublime guitar, and the accompaniment of a string ensemble, Raíz is a forceful yet delicate composition which tells of a compelling story on migration. Merging melancholic melodies inspired by folkloric music, Raíz is Triana y Luca’s first single original single from their upcoming debut EP. Supported by Kultur | lx – promotion support This constant dissonance is similar to dreams where the plot might make sense to the dreamer, but with displaced backgrounds and situations. Musically speaking, the repertoire presents clear playful melodies which are accompanied by somehow awkward, dissonant-colored piano chords. However, it is Liany’s goal and knowledge from previous programs, to make it accessible and relevant to the broad public. Some of the pieces are not always the easiest to digest musically and are challenging harmonically, lyrically, and conceptually, just like any other 20th-century art. From this solitude came the great motivation of creating this exciting program. The solitude of night resembles the solitude that was forced on the musicians, without their audiences. The repertoire speaks of the experiences one may go through the night, through dreams, and at dawn. The repertoire is comprised of hand-picked, rarely performed pieces by 20th which are tied into one unifying theme. Dreaming is an apt subject for Liany, whose parents recall her waking up at the age of four and recalling a dream where she sang in front of a crowd of joyful listeners. The album was developed with the support of the prestigious Philharmonie Luxembourg and recorded at their magnificent facilities with the help of an award from the country’s Ministry of Culture. Liany’s new album, Daydream, is a stunning example, bringing together works on the subject of dreams by Samuel Barber, Leonard Bernstein, Federico Mompou and Albena Petrovic.
The year 2023 starts with a couple of releases in classical/contemporary music and jazz!
