Latin Folk Night 7

Get ready to enjoy an exhilarating evening filled with dance, music, and traditions at the seventh edition of the Latin Folk Night! Discover the traditions that have withstood the test of time and continue to resonate in every corner of our countries.

Do not miss this live music filled experience where we not only honour our roots, but also weave bonds of unity and understanding between the Finnish community and Latin American immigrants in Finland.

Askelten Palo ry invites you to celebrate with us the diversity that unites us, the heritage that enriches us in a celebration of life and culture. Join us on November 2nd at Malmisali for either of our two performances!

Live music by Cantares-Ensamble. The repertoire of Cantares-Ensamble includes their own versions of popular songs created by prominent composers, embracing a wide variety of Latin American genres and styles.

In autumn 2017, Venezuelan singer Nathaly Gómez and Peruvian multi-instrumentalist and musicologist Camilo Pajuelo formed the Duo Cantares, inspired by a common passion for traditional music and the desire to promote it in the Nordic countries.

Cantares offered their first official concert at the Leppävaara Church in Espoo, in November 2017. Since then, Cantares maintains a constant activity in Finland and has performed also in Peru and Spain, cooperating also with local artists and from other nationalities.

On this occasion, Cantares will perform as Cantares-Ensamble along talented musicians Markko Flores (PE/FIN), Juha Varvikko (FIN), and Silvo Vatanen (FIN).

Duration: 1 h 30 min
