Created in Chile in 2012, the Ensamble Transatlántico de Folk Chileno plays a range of innovative original compositions based on traditional Chilean Folk music. Described by Rob Adams of Herald Scotland as 'a vibrant demonstration of how to keep traditional rhythms and instrumentation sounding fresh' the Ensemble has played across Europe and Chile, proving that modern Chilean folk music deserves a place no less recognised than other better known South American music styles. Dynamic and full of life, the Ensemble takes you on a tour of the different Chilean styles, ranging from the Cueca dance to the largely unrecognised music of Chile's Afro descendants, all the while mixing traditional with modern. We are ready to share our music with you!!
