PIANISTS OF THE PARANÁ DELTA – a concert –

July 9, 2020 @ 5:00 pm - 6:00 pm

Join us on a journey to the wilderness. In this opportunity we will meet 5 pianists who live in the lower section of the vast Paraná Delta, a network of islands and wetlands that cover 5,400 square miles with over 350 rivers, only 12 miles away from the city of Buenos Aires. In the delta, there is no running water, very little internet connection, and the only means of transportation is by boat (like in Venice!). There are 9,000 people that live in this area, schools, libraries and a radio! It is the most important nature reservoir of Buenos Aires area with over 120 bird species.

About two years ago, these five pianists united their forces to bring a donated piano into the islands on an old dredging boat. They formed a collective through which they compose, and play together, at the public radio of the delta, so that the piano and its music reaches all the people in the islands. Their mission is to create, foster and share the popular Argentine music.

In this concert you will have the opportunity to listen a 30′ concert of the PIANISTS OF THE PARANÁ DELTA, playing in the islands! The concert will be followed by a short documentary teaser that portraits their humanitarian project.
