""Mi Alma Llanera": a great anthology of the most beautiful music from Venezuela!"
FLAVIO SALA offers a high-quality album, dense with the magic atmosphere of Venezuela. A far land maybe not so known in Europe, but very rich in terms of musical sounds, with widely popular genres like salsa, merengue and pop, but also with a repertoire of art music that dates back to half of the nineteenth century. A genre that has been developing particularly in the cities, thanks to the deep fusion with the hispanic culture and then with the european influences. FLAVIO SALA, young and already a popular star of the classical guitar, offers a personal interpretation of this program, who can dominate both in the virtuosistic moments and those requiring a gentle touch. Sala, who makes no secret of having the supreme Alirio Diaz among its sources of inspiration, succeeds in fully immerging himself in the Venezuelan music, giving us moments of great emotion.
