View on the Pragda STREAM site

Isaac and Nora record another essential Latin American folk song – “Dos gardenias” by Antonio Machin with Mexican musicians, for their new album.

Isaac and Nora travel to Colombia, land of cumbia and vallenato, where they learn the basic rhythms of cumbia with young musicians their age in one of the suburbs of the capital. They reveal a less artistic side, delving into how a modest family has managed to combine unexpected success, the life of recognized artists, and the day-to-day academic studies.

In Medellin, Isaac and Nora visit the Carlos Gardel Museum. The Argentine star died in a plane crash in this city, now one of the world centers for his figure and Argentine tango.

The episode ends with a concert where Isaac and Nora cover the vallenato “La lejanía” by Alejandro Meza, one of the greatest exponents of traditional Colombian music
