Adriana Balboa - Hommages

Adriana Balboa is the musical poetess from the Rio de la Plata. She overcomes the separation between popular and classical music with interpretations in which joie de vivre, melancholy and passion amalgamate to form a grandiose atmospheric backdrop. The repertoire of “Hommages” consists of dedications by contemporary composers that range from impressionistic hues (Tribute to Keith Jarrett), to imaginative off-the-wall sounds (Hommage à Jimi Hendrix) and a folkloristic elegy from the Andes. In her articulation of these compositions, which are extremely demanding from the technical and interpretational standpoint, Adriana Balboa finds the perfect balance between passion, austerity and poetry. She plays with a great deal of sonorous coloring, dancingly, introspectively, temperamentally and always with the most profound sensitivity. The repertoire of “Hommages” is in the best of hands with Adriana Balboa. She understands how to mold the individual moods and intentions into expressive sounds.
