Tlen-Huicani remains one of the most faithful interpreters of the traditional folk music of Veracruz, Mexico and most of Latin America. Since 1973, their music and international achievements have earned the honor of ‘Best Folk Group in Mexico’ by the Union of Music and Theater Critics.
Tlen-Huicani, which means “the singers” in the indigenous Indian language of Nahuatl, makes the beautiful “harpa jarocha” or folk harp, the centerpiece of their music. Maestro, Alberto de la Rosa, is respected for his musicianship throughout Mexico and considered among the most outstanding folk harpists in the world. Under his direction, the group has mastered many types of Latin music including songs of emotion as heard on Concierto Romantico, (©1999 At Home International Music) or their innovative program of the traditional music of Mexico with orchestra, entitled “Cuerdas Veracruzanas."
Along with their traditional costumes andinstruments, a concert with Tlen-Huicani is like taking a journey of Mexico’s music, time andplace. |
