10th July 2012 at New Street Square, London EC4.
City of London Festival (free event), www.colf.org/.
Country: Columbia (British resident). Style: Andean Folk.
Lineup: Mauricio Velasierra (quena/moseño), Camilo Menjura (g/tiple/quena/v), Henrik Jensen (b), Gregorio Merchán (percussion)
Mauricio Velasierra, from Medellin, has lived in London on and off since 1991. He normally plays with a Quintet, but the cellist was absent with a bad back. Present were two musicians from Bogotá - Camilo Menjura and Gregorio Merchán, plus Henrik Jensen from Denmark. I took photos of Menjura with another group Majagua a few months ago: www.flickr.com/photos/kmlivemusic/sets/72157630042012686/. This group brings Andean music together with Jazz and other influences.
