puro efffecto

 

Beyond tradition.

Mixing polyphonies with percussions and acoustic instruments.


With Pascal Gaigne as musical conductor.

Accompanied by Jorge Juncal (accordion), Richi Rozas (guitar), Alfonso Calvo (double bass), Roi Adrio (percission).

Performing in Namibia (Africa), Bermuda (the lost island in the Atlantic), Rio de Janeiro and Salvador de Bahia (PERCPAN), Berlin and Colonia (POP KOMM), Saint Marino, Lisbon (Rock in Rio-Portugal) and in several places in the Iberian Peninsula.

Collaborating with artists such as Kepa Junkera, Oskorri, Hevia, Tejedor, Korrontzi, Víctor Manuel…

And enjoying their work protected always by a grateful plural audience.

The cause is what produce the effect, the result; the motive, the reason; the ideal what joins us: music.

The efffect is the result of the cause; a personal and individual impression that affects each person in a different way.

faltriqueira: a group, a little piece of a whole. A musical metonymy.

You will have to try it!

 

 

JET AND ROSES 

Four voices, four instruments, and a musical creativeness full of sensibility.

Only a word, three fff, four bodies, and another one, and four bodies again. Much of heart and, the result of all these elements is faltriqueira..

We start a new time, a new prospect. What encourages us: who listens to us; the beginning: tradition; the following one is the creation; and the reason: only music.

One speaks, and all of us speak, and everybody is One        

A voice plays, an instrument sings.

The instrument is the voice, and the voice is the wind, the string, the wood, the metal, the skin.

From far away, from further, from here, from any place, but towards the same purpose.

First, green. Second, blue. Third, jet-black using a flower as trimming.

Our yearning, our will, purpose, willpower, maturing.

But the best word is the melody which goes out the soul.



It is what we are: a whole, a unity, an efffect, a faltriqueira full of heat.
