¥¥¥ SONIDOS DEL PERÚ ¥¥¥ bonjour Pérou! the two films of the day: musical portraits of two fantastic singers based now in Lima, but both coming from the Andes Edith comes from Puno, on the shores of Lake Titicaca, and brings this culture down to the megacity of Lima, mostly songs in Aymara language Consuelo comes from Ayacucho, very important cultural region until today in Peru, and sings mostly songs from the region in Quechua language Both of them are performing live in various parts of Lima in those two films, and collaborating with other fantastic guests ¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥ 3¥ EDITH RAMOS https://vimeo/91075568 https://petitesplanetes.bandcamp/album/sonidos-del-per-balada-de-la-guerra •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• Pablo started to show some films on youtube, The room was barely lit, computer on the table, and all ears to new peruvian music. I asked him to show me some musicians I could be interested in recording. He played a video of Edith singing, and 7 minutes later, we had organize a shooting for the next day. Edith is coming from Puno, on the banks of the Titicaca lake, and has been living for a while in the massive hub of Lima, sharing her music and her traditions, mixing aymara and quechua amongst other regional expressions specific to the peruvian capital. No any other city on earth is such an aggregate of its various land. So heres a typical derive, from the old center of Lima, the huge and gorgeous Plaza de Armas which was once the seat of the entire Spanish Empire, to a way too small apartment which could barely fit modern musicians. Times... ¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥ 20¥ CONSUELO JERI https://vimeo/91095718 https://petitesplanetes.bandcamp/album/sonidos-del-per-el-mundo-de-consuelo •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• Its Javier who convinced me to make a film with Consuelo. He had such beautiful words on her that you would feel moved just by hearing him talking. I had the idea of filming with Magali Solier or Susana Baca, but what would be the point of recording such famous people, when there was some others as interesting to which you could offer a portrait? Cinema is about recording images and sounds in a specific place at a specific time. It was time for Consuelo Jeri to bring us around Lima. ¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥ WATCH the entire SONIDOS DEL PERÚ collection vimeo/album/3050162 LISTEN petitesplanetes.bandcamp/ a 33 films and albums collection made by Vincent Moon all around the country, researching on local music from Iquitos to Arequipa, from Pucallpa to Chiclayo, from Huancayo to Lima and more.
