Date & Time
Acardenchados take their name from the Mexican Cardenche style of popular music, which is created through the spontaneous interpretation of three or four voices. This improvisational yet traditional vocal ensemble joins together in exploring creative boundaries of singing in the Cardenche and Pirekua-- the syncretism of religious music chants from the Spanish evangelizers and with Indian Mexican music-- ways. Tareke Ortiz, Leo Soqui, Juan Pablo Villa and Juan Manuel Torreblanca, are four of the most respected exponents of music in Mexico. Acardenchados exposes us to extended vocal techniques in the most fascinating and energizing ways.
