CHAMAME MUSIC, PEOPLE, POETRY introduces a popular Argentinean style of world music and four artists whose lives revolve around it. You will meet Gicela Mendez Ribeiro, a rising young singer; Alberto Bofill, self-declared ambassador of the Chamame tradition; bandleader Monchito Merlo, who represents a widely popular style; as well as the international award-winning accordionist Chango Spasiuk. While they couldn't be more different, Chamama to each one is much more than just music. It represents their way of life, and they gladly invite the audience to share their passion, sorrows and joys.
