"Pynandí (Los Descalzos)" / Chango Spasiuk
Year: 2009
Country: 🇦🇷 (Argentina)
Genre: Chamamé / Folk
In this album Spasiuk achieves a masterful balance between tradition and renewal. The chamamé (a musical genre from northeastern Argentina) is the main axis, but it's amalgamated with elements of Eastern European folklore, chamber jazz and contemporary music. The accordion not only sings and dances, but breathes, reflects and sometimes cries. "Pynandí (Los Descalzos)" is a contemplative album, without artifice, where each note seems placed with a mixture of tenderness and wisdom. It's a work that transcends the chamamé genre to place itself in a broader field: that of the music that connects with the land, the memory and the essential.
