The hits of the French song of the 60s-70s in its original version

Not everyone knows that Edith Piaf's famous "La Foule" would not exist without the Argentine song "Que nadie sepa mi sufrir"; nor that the popular song of Venezuela “La Ternura” became “La Tendresse”, the great success of Bourvil and Marie Lafôret. Without forgetting the essential of Ana Belen “Solo le pido a dios”, a song that came from Argentina. Ensemble Achalay brings us these songs back in their original version. A group-a legend that conquered "l'Escale" and other fashionable cabarets of the Quartier Latin of Paris in the 60s-80s. The Ensemble Achalay is the author of 5 vinyls and a CD recorded in 2017 to celebrate the 60th anniversary of the creation of the group. Today, renewed by Gilberto Piedras, a French-Argentine musician and singer, a virtuoso of the harp and 20 other instruments, a member of the last lineup of the Ensemble Achalay, presents the hits of the 60s-70s of the French song, and not only French, wrapped in the Andean winds of the music of the legendary group formed in 1958 in Paris. This concert, GRACIAS A LA VIDA,

which is a first presentation of the group in Spain, draws a line between the South American and European music culture. Four virtuous musicians, an Argentine singer, the magic sounds of arpa, quena, quenacho, moceño, ronroco, charango, guitar, zampoña, sikus, tiple, cuatro, bombo …

The concert takes place in the Basilicaa Santa Maria del Pi, set on an elegant square of the Gothic Barrio of Barcelona.  Are you going to miss it?
