  • Nano-Stern-The-Story-Biography
    The Story Nano Stern’s path as an artist follows richly crafted song lines laid by his family and his Chilean musical ancestry, and unites those with a sound utterly fresh and relevant. The confluence of recent student and environmental political events in his home country Chile and Nano’s rise as an articulate writer and performer have, much to his chagrin, positioned him as the voice of a newly politicized Chilean generation. The grandson of Jewish refugees fleeing persecution, Nano’s childhood was painted vivid by not only his own family’s musicianship but by the powerful legacy of the Nueva Canción movement lead by Chilean musical activists during Pinochet’s dictatorship a generation before. Legends like Inti‐Illimani and Victor Jara‐ who suffered exile and even death during these troubling times‐ continue to inspire Nano’s breadth of sound and emotion. “I am extremely respectful of the tradition,” explains Stern, “It is an enormous gift we received from the people of the past.” When only fifteen, Nano joined popular Chilean underground band, Mattoral, and thus was initiated into the fresh, new sounds and socio‐political pulse of the South American rock/punk scene. The thick rock‐energy of Mattoral, his classical and jazz training, and the powerful influence of traditional, Chilean revolutionary music make for something purely Nano. What has emerged is a powerhouse artist, brilliantly layering indigenous, African, and European elements into a sound all his own, and humbly bringing audiences to tears, to their feet, and to reverie with a singular kind of emotion and soulfulness unlike any other South American artist performing today.

  • MAS VALE TROCAR Songs of the Spanish Renaissance
    MAS VALE TROCAR Songs of the Spanish Renaissance Nano Stern - Voice, Nyckelharpa Gina Allende - Viola da Gamba Florencia Bardavid - Voice, Viola da Gamba Cristian Carvacho - Percussion Click and watch performances of “Mas Vale Trocar” and “Danza Alta”. MAS VALE TROCAR PROGRAM NOTES Spain’s need to find its own voice in the world after the end of its South American empire, led to the discovery of forgotten sources and voices that had for centuries lay forgotten in the libraries of Europe. In 1870 at the Royal Library in Madrid, a historian found and described what would later become the most notorious Spanish musical manuscript from the XVI century: the “Cancionero Musical de Palacio” (Palace musical songbook). This is no minor manuscript; it consists of some 450 pieces (mostly in Spanish but also in other peninsular languages such as Catalan, Basque, and Portuguese) some of which are anonymous and some of which are written by the most revered musicians of those triunfal days of Spanish culture such as Juan del Encina and Pedro de Escobar. The first impression, when facing a songbook from the XV and XVI centuries is that they are a window into the music and soundscapes of the past. But nothing could be further from the truth. In all reality, what we often find are poems with scarcely annotated melodies, and all the esthetic and interpretative tradition that surrounds them has been lost in time. How would this music, which constantly draws from popular and courtly languages, have been performed in 1520? Attempts at answering these question have been made from many different angles: either by applying the interpretative styles of the Italian renaissance, or by incorporating certain colors and tendencies still present in Spanish and Mediterranean folk music.

    Marta Topferova Latin trio Original & Latin American songs Marta Topferova (vocals, cuatro, percussion) Alejandro Soto Lacoste (guitar, 12-string guitar, accordion, piano, vocals) Gabo Naas (guitar, mandolin, bass, clarinet, vocals) Singer/songwriter Marta Topferova’s Latin trio is dedicated to the rich tradition of Latin American songs. Their repertoire consists of rhythms and styles such as the Chilean cueca, Argentinean chacarera and zamba, Venezuelan vals and joropo, Andean huayno as well as original songs by all three musicians. Marta's uniquely deep voice with her own accompaniment on the Venezuelan cuatro and percussion along with Alejandro Soto Lacoste’s and Gabo Naas’ soulful playing is a combination that brings listeners into a spirited musical landscape. Marta Topferova is one of the most unique singers and songwriters of her generation. She has been heavily influenced by Czech and Slavic musical traditions, as well as Latin American folk music. As a steady creative force on the New York music scene for sixteen years, Marta collaborated with some of the best musicians from the Latin, jazz and world-music circles, and this experience has forged a dynamic mix of styles in her work. Marta recently returned to her homeland, the Czech Republic, in order to launch an ensemble of Czech and Slavic music - Milokraj - meaning "beloved land". Marta has released nine albums of primarily original songs and toured the U.S., Europe, Argentina and Thailand. Chilean songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Alejandro Soto Lacoste is a leading musician of the Chilean music scene. He studied piano, guitar, accordion and singing. He also studied counterpoint, harmony and composition with Chilean professor Fernando Carrasco, and later assisted him with projects with the Philharmonic Orchestra.

  • Inti-Illimani and Nano Stern: Bringing the House Down
    WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 11, 2017 By Raul da Gama Inti-Illimani and Nano Stern: Bringing the House Down … The prodigiously talented Nano Stern represents a new generation of Chilean musicians who is making an enormous contribution to Chilean music, by adding to the library of music and broadening its musical language with his references to other musical idioms and also by introducing extensive improvisational techniques and memorable soli on guitar, violin and piano (on which he was not, however, heard that night). But Mr Stern and his trio – including masterful drummer and charango player Cristian Carvacho and also a terrific bassist, Patricio Rojas – made for an explosive opening set that went on for almost an hour. Nano Stern also prepared the audience for what was to come, by reminding Canadians that while we have made great strides in the area of welcoming immigrants from war-torn regions of the world and in mending our ways when it comes to apologizing for the many atrocities committed against indigenous peoples, we have a long way to go when it comes to reforming capitalism – if such a thing is at all possible. His outing of Barrick Gold during the performance ought to have reminded us that liberal-style democracy is not as socially conscious as it needs to be. This was to be an underlying message in the viscerally exciting music of Nano Stern … It was an evening that was not only one of the most imaginative, but also certainly one the most memorable by any group of artists performing in Toronto this year.

Founded by Jorge Coulón in 1967, Inti-Illimani has performed worldwide to hundreds of thousands of fans for 50 years, collaborated with folk legends, earned awards and honours for their activism and masterful musicianship, and produced one of the richest discographies in Latin American recording history. The group’s first album, Nueva Canción (New Song), spoke to their role in dreaming a new vision for Chile during the volatile socio-political landscape of South America during the 1960s and 70s. They have endured political exile, embodied creative leadership through decades of transition and evolution, and enjoyed an invaluable, truly majestic career. Inti-Illimani’s poetry – a sound that captures memories of persecution, love, loss, revolution, social justice, and freedom – has captivated artists with whom they have performed, including Peter Gabriel, Bruce Springsteen, Sting, Mercedes Sosa, Patricio Manns, Youssou N’Dour, John Williams, Joan Baez, and Paco Peña.
